High resolution temperature imaging techniques are necessary to optimise designs and detect failures of integrated circuits. An improved photoreflectance technique using simultaneous multi-wavelength illumination is presented in order to probe optimally each material of integrated circuits and reduce drifts. It makes it possible to rapidly highlight hot-spots, a usually failure precursor.
