General relation between spatial coherence and absorption
Denis Tihon, Stafford Withington, Elise Bailly +2
Despite the fact that incandescent sources are usually spatially incoherent, it has been known for some time that a proper design of a thermal source can modify its spatial coheren…
Identification of the absorption processes in periodic plasmonic structures using Energy Absorption Interferometry
Denis Tihon, Stafford Withington, Christopher N. Thomas +1
Power dissipation in electromagnetic absorbers is a quadratic function of the incident fields. To characterize an absorber, one needs to deal with the coupling that may occur betwe…
Characterization of Power Absorption Response of Periodic 3D Structures to Partially Coherent Fields
Denis Tihon, Stafford Withington, Christopher N. Thomas +1
In many applications of absorbing structures it is important to understand their spatial response to incident fields, for example in thermal solar panels, bolometric imaging and co…
Characteristic Functions Describing the Power Absorption Response of Periodic Structures to Partially Coherent Fields
Christophe Craeye, Stafford Withington, Christopher N. Thomas
Many new types of sensing or imaging surfaces are based on periodic thin films. It is explained how the response of those surfaces to partially coherent fields can be fully charact…
