Silicon Microspheres for Super-Planckian Light Sources in the Mid Infrared

Silicon microspheres with diameters in the 2–3 micrometre range act as photonic nanocavities. At high temperature, their Mie resonances produce highly selective mid-infrared emission, including modes above the calculated black-body limit.
