J. Popp, M. Lankers, K. Schaschek, W. Kiefer, and J. T. Hodges, "Observation of sudden temperature jumps in optically levitated microdroplets due to morphology-dependent input resonances," Appl. Opt. 34, 2380-2386 (1995)
During the slow evaporation of an optically levitated microdroplet of a glycerol–water mixture (3:1) (approximately 12.44 μm in radius) several morphology-dependent input resonances have been observed in its Raman spectrum. These resonances yield sudden temperature jumps of approximately 10 °C in the microdroplet as evidenced by sudden shifts in the output (Raman) resonance spectra. The latter effects could be explained by a simple energy balance calculation and the dependence of droplet refractive index and density on temperature.

Additionally the input resonance, the Mie size parameter x(n), the refractive index n, the incident laser power IL, the absorption efficiency Qabs are given as dependent on time t. One can calculate ΔTcalc by using Eq. (15). For ΔT of the baseline the following equation can be estimated: ΔTbl = 5.36 °C − 6.76 × 10−4 °C s time. The difference of ΔTcalc and ΔTbl results in Δ(ΔTcalc).
