Figure 1: (a) Photography of the miniaturized mid-infrared spectral sensing platform based on metasurface thermal emitters; (b) Thermal image encoding/decoding results of different metasurface thermal ...

Researchers use laser light to form a tiny “optical pinhole” inside a nonlinear crystal, which also turns the infrared image into a visible image that a traditional silicon-based camera sensor can ...

Teledyne Flir has announced new additions to its family of X-series science-grade thermal cameras for the mid-wave infrared (MWIR) and longwave infrared (LWIR) spectrums: the X6980 HS high-speed ...

JWST's Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) observations of Cassiopeia A (Cas A) provided detailed elemental mapping of its inner shell, identifying components such as sulfur, oxygen, argon, and neon.

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) utilizes mid-infrared spectroscopy to precisely analyze molecular components such as water vapor and sulfur dioxide in exoplanet atmospheres. The key to this ...

Physicists have created a compact laser that emits extremely bright, short pulses of light in a useful but difficult-to-achieve wavelength range, packing the performance of larger photonic devices ...

IR cameras are propelling the automotive industry forward with their improved precision and efficiency in manufacturing.
