Ultrafast laser processing creates silicon surfaces that absorb nearly all infrared light and remain stable under heat and ...

Flying this week? Don't be surprised if you're handed a face mask or have a heat detecting gun fired at you as you step off the plane. As the swine flu continues to spread around the world, airports ...

The ScanIR3 Series includes a choice of eight models that provide accurate, real-time thermal imaging in a wide variety of industrial applications, including continuous sheet and web-based processes, ...

D’oh: simulation of infrared radiation from a heat source being blocked by an object shaped like the head of Homer Simpson (left). The image on the right shows how the proposed cloaking device would ...

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 ...

Infrared radiation (IR), or infrared light, is a type of radiant energy that's invisible to human eyes but that we can feel as heat. All objects in the universe emit some level of IR radiation, but ...

Considerable public concern has been expressed around the world about the radiation risks posed by the backscatter (ionizing radiation) and millimeter-wave (nonionizing radiation) whole-body scanners ...
