Thermal radiation studies have progressed rapidly, not only in theoretical and experimental exploration beyond the conventional but also in its advanced applications. This is a one-stop resource for capturing and discussing these cutting-edge developments exploring the theory, experiments, and applications of thermal radiation from macro to nano. Presented in a systematic framework, this book is divided into two parts, the first on macroscopic thermal radiation and the second on micro- and nanoscale. Each part delivers basic theory, numerical methods, advanced experimental techniques, and promising applications making this an easy-to-follow guide meeting both basic and advanced needs. Supported by more than 180 colorful illustrations, readers can clearly visualize the theory, experiments, and applications in practice. A book for all, written at a graduate level but undoubtedly a useful tool for researchers, professionals, and even engineers who are interested in this fast developing area.
Cutting-edge developments of thermal radiation are discussed systematically in this book. Delivering a comprehensive view, with real-life applications, of thermal radiation from macro to nano this book captures the great progresses made. A book for all including beginners, graduates, and researchers wanting to be brought up to speed.
