摘要

Abstract

Laser-induced thermocapillary deformation of liquid surfaces has emerged as a promising tool to precisely characterize the thermophysical properties of pure fluids. However

challenges arise for nanofluid (NF) and soft bio-fluid systems where the direct interaction of the laser generates an intriguing interplay between heating

momentum

and scattering forces which can even damage soft biofluids. Here

we report a versatile

pump-probe-based

rapid

and non-contact interferometric technique that resolves interface dynamics of complex fluids with the precision of ~1 nm in thick-film and 150 pm in thin-film regimes below the thermal limit without the use of lock-in or modulated beams. We characterize the thermophysical properties of complex NF in three exclusively different types of configurations. First

when the NF is heated from the bottom through an opaque substrate

we demonstrate that our methodology permits the measurement of thermophysical properties (viscosity

surface tension

and diffusivity) of complex NF and biofluids. Second

in a top illumination configuration

we show a precise characterization of NF by quantitively isolating the competing forces

taking advantage of the different time scales of these forces. Third

we show the measurement of NF confined in a metal cavity

in which the transient thermoelastic deformation of the metal surface provides the properties of the NF as well as thermo-mechanical properties of the metal. Our results reveal how the dissipative nature of the heatwave allows us to investigate thick-film dynamics in the thin-film regime

thereby suggesting a general approach for precision measurements of complex NFs

biofluids

and optofluidic devices.
