Measurements of the effect of surface roughness on the polarization state of thermally emitted radiation

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Infrared measurements are presented of the degree of linear polarization of thermally emitted radiation from metallic and glass surfaces. Both types of surface show a rapid increase with target angle of the degree of linear polarization and a rapid fall with increasing surface roughness.
