Thermal diffusivity measurements are carried out in certain organic liquids using the pulsed dual beam thermal lens technique. The 532 nm pulses from a frequency doubled Q-switched Nd:YAG laser are used as the heating source and an intensity stabilized He-Ne laser serves as the probe beam. Experimental determination of the character- istic time constant of the transient thermal lens signal is verified theoreti- cally. Measured thermal diffusivity values are in excellent agreement with literature values. © 1998 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers. (S0091-3286(98)00510-8)
