Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Infrared science and technology is a promising advanced field and has been widely used in military fields such as satellite imaging; missile guidance; and the detection of fighters, vehicles, and ships, etc. It has also been used in civil fields such as electric power, fire protection, industrial defect detection, medical treatment, night vision monitoring, law enforcement of public security organs, environmental pollution monitoring, inspection of power plants and transmission lines, etc. The prospects for these applications are even more exciting with artificial intelligence technology. This technology offers remarkable advantages to improve the application range of infrared science and technology.

This Special Issue aims to report theoretical and experimental advances in infrared science and technology, covering the field of infrared theory, imaging system design, experiment, application, devices, instrumentation, etc.

In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:

  • Infrared spectroscopy, theory, and applications;
  • Infrared imaging device design, optimization, testing, and applications;
  • Infrared technology applications in the areas of industrial inspection, pollution, and monitoring, biomedical and medical, remote sensing, nondestructive testing, etc.

We look forward to receiving your contributions.

Infrared selective emitters are attracting more and more attention due to their modulation ability of infrared radiance, which provides an efficient ability to blend objects into the surrounding environment. In this paper, an Ag/ZnS/Si/Ag/Si multilayered emitter is proposed by virtue of impedance matching as well as Fabry-Perot cavity effect to achieve selective radiation in the infrared band. The emissivity of the fabricated selective emitter is measured to be ε3–5μm = 0.16 and ε8–14μm = 0.23 in the atmosphere windows, respectively, meeting the requirements of infrared stealth. Meanwhile, the emissivity at the non-atmospheric window (5–8 μm) is as high as 0.78, which allows efficient heat dissipation to achieve radiative cooling. Furthermore, the selective emitter maintains excellent stealth performance until 350 °C, indicating its good heat resistance and dissipation at medium temperature. The proposed emitter with spectral selectivity provides a new strategy for the facile fabrication of mid-/low-temperature infrared stealth devices. Full article
