Thermal imagers harness the physics of infrared radiation by converting it into electrical signals and mapping them into ...

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 ...

A team of engineers and material scientists in the Paul M. Rady Department of Mechanical Engineering at CU Boulder has developed a new technology to turn thermal radiation into electricity in a way ...

The discovery of a thermal version of the Hall effect in common semiconductors challenges our understanding of how magnetic ...

Thermal cameras detect infrared radiation, which is heat energy emitted by objects rather than visible light. While these ...

Material properties such as sound insulation, resistance to extreme heat and thermal expansion originate from how the zillions of microscopic building blocks (nuclei and electrons) interact at ...

A new theoretical description of how thermal machines work in the quantum regime provides a guide to increasing their efficiency. Just as classical computers need refrigeration, quantum computers will ...

A chunk of rock that fell from space in 1724 has spent three centuries in a Paris museum. Researchers have now used it to confirm something materials scientists had never seen before: a solid that ...

Physics is the search for and application of rules that can help us understand and predict the world around us. Central to physics are ideas such as energy, mass, particles and waves. Physics attempts ...

Noctua’s core strength lies in optimizing the trade-off between cooling performance and acoustic noise. Rather than brute-forcing airflow, their engineering team focuses on psychoacoustics, ...

Noctua has Partnered with Forced Physics DCT to deliver next-level desktop PC cooling, bypassing the traditional limit of PC ...

The Department of Physics and Engineering Physics offers major programs of lecture and laboratory instruction leading to the bachelor of science in physics and the bachelor of science in engineering ...
