Resonant-cavity enhanced thermal emission

In this paper we present a vertical-cavity enhanced resonant thermal emitter—a highly directional, narrow-band, tunable, partially coherent thermal source. This device enhances thermal emittance of a metallic or any other highly reflective structure to unity near a cavity resonant frequency. The str...
