2. Radiation (emission and reception) and radiative properties of materials
This section covers the basics of radiation emission and reception. It also provides some basic information on the radiative properties of materials. We will confine ourselves to descriptions useful in radiometry for thermography.
2.1 The basics
2.1.1 Spectrum of electromagnetic radiation
Figure 3 shows the spectrum of electromagnetic radiation. The practical unit is the wavelength, in micrometers...
