Time scale for IR-absorption-based heating. By monitoring Rhodamine B fluorescence lifetimes, one can directly measure characteristic times associated with laser heating of the sample. The characteristic heating time is currently limited by the time binning resolution of the data (<20 ms), which is slower than, but consistent with, predictions (see text for details).
