Researchers have developed a device that can disrupt the relationship between the absorption and emission efficiencies of an object, essentially violating Kirchhoff’s law of thermal radiation. This law, in place for over 150 years, states that an object’s ability to absorb and emit energy is equal at each wavelength and angle of incidence. This breakthrough could significantly impact sustainable energy harvesting systems and certain types of camouflage technology. (Artist’s concept.) ********************************************** Scientists have developed a device that can break the principles of Kirchhoff’s law of thermal radiation, disrupting the traditional relationship between absorption and emission efficiencies in an object.
