Preferred Label : thermoptometry;
IUPAC definition : A technique in which an optical characteristic of a substance (and/or its reaction
product(s)) is measured as a function of temperature whilst the substance is subjected
to a controlled temperature program. Measurements of total light, light of specific
wavelength(s), refractive index and luminescence lead to thermophotometry, thermospectrometry,
thermorefractometry and thermoluminescence, respectively; observation under the microscope
leads to thermomicroscopy.;
