Manufacturers frequently use coatings to protect the structural stability of engines or power generators operating at high temperatures. Ceramic shields, however, have not been able to adequately address a critical, performance-limiting factor: heat radiation. Researchers have engineered ceramic...

Metamaterials operating at frequency ranges in which the dielectric permittivity is close to zero have been discussed for use across a wide range of optical applications. Sean Molesky and colleagues from the University of Alberta in Canada, have now proposed methods for engineering thermally excited...
