As great as cameras that operate in the visual light spectrum are, they omit a lot of the information that can be gleaned from other wavelengths. There is also the minor issue that visibility is often ...

Drawing the scattering of plane waves by homogeneous spheres in Mie theory, material lets photons at gigahertz frequencies ...

An international team of researchers, led by Drexel University, has found that a thin coating of MXene — a type of two-dimensional nanomaterial discovered and studied at Drexel for more than a decade ...

The ability to detect infrared radiation is the basis of any infrared thermal imaging technology. All objects emit infrared radiation as a function of their temperature; the detection of such ...

U.S. researchers have developed an IR-CW laser-based method to remove backsheets from end-of-life silicon solar modules ...

Infrared radiation, the part of the electromagnetic spectrum invisible to the human eye, is a key enabling component in a myriad of technologies, spanning from communication to medicine to astronomy.

A new method to measure the continuous spectrum of light is set to improve thermal imaging and infrared thermography. A new method to measure the continuous spectrum of light, developed in the lab of ...
