Thermal bridges, insulation defects and building envelope air leakage can form hidden energy gaps, or inefficiencies that ...

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 ...

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 ...

Schematic of the TCM–MWG–TED structure. The upper thermochromic (TCM) layer provides visible camouflage with high transparency in the 8–14 μm mid-infrared range. The middle layer consists of a ...

The human eye can only detect wavelengths in the visible light range, but a new imaging system will let us "see" infrared radiation using smartphones. When you purchase through links on our site, we ...

HADAR night vision tech enables robots and cars to see textures, distances, and materials in complete darkness, just like daytime cameras.

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 ...

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 ...
