Polaritons in anisotropic materials result in exotic optical features, which can provide
opportunities to control light at the nanoscale,,,,,,,,–. So far these polaritons have been …

The Thermal Emission Spectrometer (TES) investigation on Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) is
aimed at determining (1) the composition of surface minerals, rocks, and ices;(2) the …

Emissivity spectra (1670–200 cm− 1) from the Mars Global Surveyor Thermal Emission
Spectrometer (MGS‐TES) show significant differences between bright and dark surfaces …

The Thermal Emission Spectrometer (TES) instrument on the Mars Global Surveyor (MGS)
mission has discovered a remarkable accumulation of crystalline hematite (α‐Fe2O3) that …

Mid-infrared thermal emission spectra were acquired and are presented for 37 different
sulfate minerals representing Strunz classes 6/AD as well as a few other miscellaneous …

Infrared spectrometry is a well-established method for the identification of minerals. Due to
its simplicity and the short time required to obtain a result, it can be practiced on-site during …

This study of the spectral properties of Ca-sulfates was initiated to support remote detection
of these minerals on Mars. Gypsum, bassanite, and anhydrite are the currently known forms …

For optical modeling and other purposes, we have created a library of 57 liquids for which
we have measured the complex optical constants n and k. These liquids vary in their nature …

The spectral properties of anhydrous carbonates and nitrates are dominated by strong,
sharp vibrational bands due to the CO32− and NO3− anions observed as absorption bands …

Anisotropy has been a key property employed in the design of optical components for
hundreds of years. However, in recent years there has been growing interest in polaritons …
