A modified experimental setup is devised with the pump path intercalated a moving stage identical to the one in the probe path, which extends the optical path difference of the probe beam relative to the pump beam from 4 to 8 ns. The measured results indicate that the uncertainty from the misalignment and divergence of both beams can be ignored when the last 4 ns experimental data are connected with those of the first 4 ns smoothly. The as-obtained thermal conductance of AI/Si and Cr/Si interfaces agrees well with the reported experimental values, which verifies the reliability of this modified version of this measurement.展开更多
