which identifies the depth normal to the surface at which the temperature amplitude is of its surface amplitude. This concept is commonly adopted in time domain thermoreflectance (TDTR) and other transient thermoreflectance techniques, and is derived as follows:
Let's consider the one-dimensional transient heat conduction problem in a semi-infinite body. The governing equation and corresponding initial and boundary conditions are as follows:
where A is the amplitude of oscillation, ω is the angular frequency, and β is the phase delay.
Introducing excess temperature , the governing equation and corresponding boundary and initial conditions become
Duhamel’s theorem can be used to handle the time-dependent boundary condition. Instead of solving eqs. (24) – (27) directly, we will start with a simpler auxiliary problem which is similar to eqs. (24) - (27), only that in eq. (25) t is treated as a parameter τ, rather than time, as defined below:
Duhamel’s theorem (Ozisik, 1993) stated that the solution to the original problem is related to the solution of the auxiliary problem by
which can rewritten using Leibniz’s rule
The second term on the right hand side is
therefore, eq. (33) becomes
The solution of the auxiliary problem can be expressed as
The partial derivative appearing in eq. (35) can be evaluated as
Substituting eq. (37) into eq. (35), the solution of the original problem becomes
Introducing a new independent variable
eq. (38) becomes
For the periodic boundary condition specified in eq. (25), we have
which can be rewritten as
Evaluating the first integral on the right hand side of eq. (41) yields
It can be seen that as , the second term will become zero and the first term represents the steady oscillation.
where represents the amplitude of oscillation at point x. It is apparent that the amplitude of the oscillation decreases as x increases. The location at which the oscillation amplitude drops to of its surface amplitude is at
