However, traditional calorimetric methods typically rely on single-channel measurements, complex fabrication, or long ...

Melexis has created a 32 x 24 pixel far-infra-red sensor array that can photograph the temperature of objects at between -40 and +260°C. Dubbed MLX90642, it comes in a 9.3mm diameter four-lead TO39 ...

Excess heat from electronic or mechanical devices is a sign or cause of inefficient performance. In many cases, embedded sensors to monitor the flow of heat could help engineers alter device behavior ...

How does a cloud stay cool under direct sunlight—or seem to vanish in infrared? In nature, phenomena like white cumulus clouds, gray storm systems, and even the hollow hairs of polar bears offer ...

Why heat flux (flow) is an important thermal parameter. How researchers have developed an innovative heat-flux sensor. Details on the performance of this sensor in flat and curved situations. We know ...

Researchers invent nano-clouds that can change colour, temperature and outwit heat sensors. (Nanowerk News) How does a cloud stay cool under direct sunlight –– or seem to vanish in infrared? In nature ...

Imagine you are playing the guitar—each pluck of a string creates a sound wave that vibrates and interacts with other waves. Now shrink that idea down to a small single molecule, and instead of sound ...
