University of Houston professor of electrical and computer engineering Jiming Bao is set to improve thermal imaging and infrared thermography techniques used to measure and visualize temperature ...

A research team from Penn State has broken a 165-year-old law of thermal radiation with unprecedented strength, setting the stage for more efficient energy harvesting, heat transfer and infrared ...

An international team of researchers has found that a thin coating of MXene -- a type of two-dimensional nanomaterial -- could enhance a material's ability to trap or shed heat. The discovery, which ...

Imagine a technology that could allow us to see through opaque surfaces without exposure to harmful x-rays, that could give us the ability to detect harmful chemicals and bio-agents from a safe ...

All objects that have temperature release thermal radiation, which is electromagnetic radiation. The solar radiation spectrum is the most representative type of thermal radiation since it enters the ...

Researchers have broken a centuries-old law of physics, putting us on a path towards making better energy-harvesting devices, such as solar cells. Atoms at temperatures beyond absolute zero may be a ...

Abstract -Gone are the days of dedicated live view video screens that are manually monitored by personnel. Advances in communications and software technology allow utility operators to be alerted of ...
