Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of optical properties of turbid media using pulsed photothermal radiometry
TL;DR: An analytic theory for the time dependence of the PPTR signal in semi-infinite scattering and absorbing media has been derived and tested in a series of controlled gel phantoms and is shown to model the time course of the detected signal accurately.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preparation and characterization of polyurethane optical phantoms
TL;DR: The optical properties of the phantoms have not significantly changed in a period of exceeding one year, which makes them suitable for use as a reference standard.
Journal ArticleDOI
Curing efficiency of dental resin composites formulated with camphorquinone or trimethylbenzoyl-diphenyl-phosphine oxide.
Luis Felipe Jochims Schneider,Larissa Maria Cavalcante,Scott A. Prahl,Carmem S. Pfeifer,Jack L. Ferracane +4 more
TL;DR: Although CQ presented higher PD(abs) than TPO, formulations containing TPO exhibited higher reactivity than that with CQ, so trimethylbenzoyl-diphenyl-phosphine oxide requires further investigation, with higher concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accuracies of the diffusion approximation and its similarity relations for laser irradiated biological media
TL;DR: In general, fluxes can be computed more accurately with the diffusion approximation than fluence rates, and for anisotropic scattering, better results can be obtained by simple transforms of optical coefficients using the similarity relations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantum yield of conversion of the photoinitiator camphorquinone
TL;DR: The quantum yield of conversion of camphorquinone (CQ), a blue light photoinitiator, in dental resin composites is studied using a LED lamp and a Quartz Tungsten Halogen lamp as the light curing units at five different irradiances.
