Abstract
The temperature distribution created by a hot probe in contact with a sample consisting of an epitaxial film and a conducting substrate is considered. The results indicate the necessary diameter for the thermal contact of the probe that will result in temperature gradients localized in the epitaxial film; a method of determining the temperature in the region of the probe contact is given. The calculations have been checked by experiment on thermal models and silicon epitaxial films.
