Summary of Terra MODIS Thermal Emissive Bands On-orbit Calibration
2006 IEEE International Symposium on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2006Terra MODIS has been in operation for more than 6 years since its launch in December 1999. It has been continuously making global observations for scientific studies of the Earth system and its environment and climate changes. MODIS has 20 reflective solar bands (RSB) and 16 thermal emissive bands (TEB).

Experimental investigation of the angular variation of emissivity in the thermal infrared band
SPIE Proceedings, 1998Multi-angle algorithms for estimating sea and land surface temperature with ATSR data require a precise knowledge of the angular variation of surface emissivity in the thermal infrared. Nowadays, very few measurements do exist of this variation. In this work an experimental investigation of the angular variation of the infrared emissivity in the ...

THz Thermal Emission Control Via Electromagnetic Band Engineering
IEEE Transactions on Terahertz Science and Technology, 2014In the following, we report on the design and implementation of an inexpensive thermal source for THz radiation with a highly tunable radiation signature. It consists of five 350- μm-thick Si wafers, each spaced 1 mm apart. The thermal emission of this structure was calculated analytically and numerically.

Detector noise characterization and performance of MODIS thermal emissive bands
SPIE Proceedings, 2007MODIS is a cross-track scanning radiometer that makes solar reflective and thermal emissive observations. It has 16 thermal emissive bands (TEB), a total of 160 individual detectors (10 for each spectral band), with wavelengths in the mid-wave infrared (MWIR) and long-wave infrared (LWIR) spectral regions.

Directional control of narrow-band thermal emission from nanoantennas
Journal of Photonics for Energy, 2019We investigate the directional control of narrow-band perfect thermal emission using a nanoscale Yagi–Uda antenna. Although Yagi–Uda antennas were demonstrated to achieve directional control in the optical and radio frequency regimes, they have not been applied for thermal infrared emission. Here, by coupling a nanoscale thermal emitter into a Yagi–Uda

Electronic crosstalk effect in SNPP VIIRS thermal emissive bands (Conference Presentation)
Earth Observing Systems XXII, 2017The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) onboard the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (SNPP) spacecraft has been on orbit for more than five years. Pronounced striping in Earth view (EV) images and obvious discontinuity in the EV brightness temperature (BT) of the thermal emissive bands (TEB) during the blackbody (BB) warm-up ...

Applied Optics, 1988
Problems encountered in thermal infrared spectral emissivity signatures for remote sensing are addressed. Instrument calibration procedure is described, with particular attention to stray light effects. A method, which derives from the box method, for the absolute determination of spectral signatures of bare soils and mineral samples is proposed and ...
