The frequency response of the photomodulated thermoreflectance (PMTR) signal has been used to characterize various semiconductor samples, including crystalline Ge/Si, ion-implanted Ge, and amorphous Si. Theoretical modelling has allowed the deconvolution of electron-hole plasma- and thermal-wave contributions to the signal throughout the entire frequency range.
