Harvard researchers have discovered that cycads—one of the oldest living lineages of seed plants—heat up their reproductive organs to attract beetle pollinators and the insects possess infrared ...

In a finding that could reshape how we grow functional foods indoors, researchers have shown that near-infrared radiation — ...

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 ...

In fact, his team found the same thing in tests with only IR: infrared alone has no impact. A trick for sensing infrared It isn't possible for mosquitoes to detect thermal infrared radiation the same ...

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

Scientists captured clear images of biomolecules in single live cells in water for the first time using infrared (IR) transmission imaging. The IR technique enables researchers to measure the mass of ...

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 new method to measure the continuous spectrum of light is set to improve thermal imaging and infrared thermography. A new method to measure the continuous spectrum of light, developed in the lab of ...
