Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.This study reveals why the back feathers of a common kingfisher show various non‐iridescent blueish structural colors by analyzing the internal structures of the feathers. It demonstrates how structural differences lead to the different optical interactions, thereby producing different colors.

Making Thermal Imaging More Equitable and Accurate: Resolving Solar Loading Biases [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Thermal cameras and thermal point detectors are used to measure the temperature of human skin. These are important devices that are used everyday in clinical and mass screening settings, particularly in an epidemic. Unfortunately, despite the wide use of thermal sensors, the temperature estimates from thermal sensors do not work well in uncontrolled ...

Determination of thermal and optical parameters of melanins by photopyroelectric spectroscopy [PDF]
, 2005 Photopyroelectric spectroscopy (PPE) was used to study the thermal and optical properties of electropolymerized melanins. The photopyroelectric intensity signal and its phase were independently measured as a function of wavelength, as well as a function of chopping frequency for a given wavelength in the saturation part of the PPE spectrum.
