Kelheim Fibers, a leading manufacturer of viscose specialty fibers, has developed a new viscose fiber that reflects infrared (IR) radiation for thermal retention. According to the company, the human ...

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The infrared radiation (IR) emitter and receiver market is expected to register a CAGR of almost 7% during 2020-2024, as per the latest research report by Technavio. The ...

EPFL physicists propose a new path to detect infrared radiation with outstanding sensitivity, allowing detection of signals as low as that of a single quantum of light. When using our webcam or cell ...

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 ...

Researchers from Skoltech have devised a way to detect infrared radiation across a wide range without cooling the detector.

In recent years, IR blasters have become a standard part of smart TV systems, but it's not always clear just what these devices are or do. For starters, the IR in the name stands for infrared, which ...

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 ...

Researchers from the Molecular Physics and Physical Chemistry departments of the Fritz Haber Institute have shown how two highly synchronized infrared (IR) laser beams can control molecules as they ...

Electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength longer than about 700 nanometers won't activate rhodopsin, and IR generated from body heat is around 9,300 nm. In fact, no known protein is activated by ...

While a mosquito bite is often no more than a temporary bother, in many parts of the world it can be scary. One mosquito species, Aedes aegypti, spreads the viruses that cause over 100,000,000 cases ...
