We extend the applications of the photothermal diagnostics by means of laser-infrared photothermal radiometry (PTR) to samples with curved surfaces. Specifically, we present both the theoretical and experimental PTR studies on solid cylindrical samples (surfaces). Based on the Green function method, the thermal-wave field distribution of a cylindrical surface that is under the excitation of a periodically modulated uniform beam is obtained. The laser beam, which is of a cylindrical symmetry, impinges uniformly, partially or fully, on the cylindrical surface, which is practically infinitely long along the axial direction. The characteristics of the thermal-wave field with respect to the thermal diffusivity of the material, the diameter of the sample, the size of the incident beam, and the measurement of the angle are discussed. Experimental results are in good agreement with the theory.
