Abstract
Methods and systems for measuring the temperature of a sample can include the use of one or more illumination sources and a sample containing thermochromic material. One or more detectors are operable to detect two or more signals indicative of a component of an illumination facilitated by the illumination source(s) and scattered at two or more angles with respect to the sample containing the thermochromic material, wherein the signals are converted to a temperature.
