Micro-optics enables directional thermal displays Nat. Photon. (IF 32.3) Pub Date : 2024-09-04 David Pile
Now, Ziwei Fan and colleagues, from the USA and China, have demonstrated directional thermal emission using pixelated, large-area, micro-optical arrays (Z. Fan et al. Nat. Commun. 15, 4533; 2024). Using carefully designed micro-optics (top left picture), the team experimentally demonstrated broadband, polarization-independent directional control of thermal radiation. The directional micro-emitter was
