However, there are few methods to evaluate the thermal effect of micron-sized laser spots interacting with other tissues. Here, we present a multi-wavelength micro-scale laser thermal effect measuring system that has high temporal, spatial and temperature resolutions, and can quantitatively realize evaluations in real time. In this system, with accurate 3D positioning and flexible pulsed laser parameter adjustments, groups of temperature changes are systematically measured when the micron-sized laser spots from six kinds of wavelengths individually irradiate the Pd\/Cr thermocouple junction area, and reference data of laser spot thermal effects are obtained. This work develops a stable, reliable and universal tool for quantitatively exploring the thermal effect of micron-sized lasers, and provides basic reference data for research on light-stimulated neuron excitement in the future.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s21155133","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,29]],"date-time":"2021-07-29T21:21:21Z","timestamp":1627593681000},"page":"5133","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["A Micron-Sized Laser Photothermal Effect Evaluation System and Method"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"21","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0443-547X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jingjing","family":"Xu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Microelectronics, Shandong University, Jinan 250102, China"},{"name":"Shenzhen Research Institute, Shandong University, Shenzhen 518057, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ming","family":"Zeng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Microelectronics, Shandong University, Jinan 250102, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xin","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Microelectronics, Shandong University, Jinan 250102, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Junhui","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Microelectronics, Shandong University, Jinan 250102, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xinyu","family":"Huo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Microelectronics, Shandong University, Jinan 250102, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Danhong","family":"Han","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Beijing Research Institute of Mechanical Equipment, Beijing 100854, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zhenhai","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Beijing Research Institute of Mechanical Equipment, Beijing 100854, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lan","family":"Tian","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Microelectronics, Shandong University, Jinan 250102, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"731","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1751-1097.1991.tb09885.x","article-title":"Current and future trends in laser medicine","volume":"53","author":"Parrish","year":"1991","journal-title":"Photochem.
