  • This paper extends the recently introduced Front Face Flash Method for extraction of thermal diffusivity of thin films to samples of small optical thickness. The paper discusses the principal question whether diffusivity is uniquely defined in case a heated ceramic, thin film sample is non- or only partly transparent to radiation. The paper applies radiative Monte Carlo and Two-Flux simulations to numerically solve the Equation of Radiative Transfer. Both methods are integrated in a Finite Element scheme, with conduction coupled to radiation, to investigate heat transfer under strongly transient and non-linear conditions. In this paper, the Front Face Flash method is successfully applied to ZrO2- and SiC samples. It thus provides a promising tool to also investigate the thermal transport properties of thin film superconductors, but applicability still has to be demonstrated. The approach is particularly suitable for analysis of coupled conduction/radiation processes.
