Meaning of Distribution Function
• How much energy is emitted at =550 nm? =550.0? =550.000000000…?
Me, d = energy emitted between
and +d per unit area
Me, = dNe, / d where Ne, is energy emitted for wavelengths less than

Effect of Emissivity
• ε ≤ 1
• ε=1 → “blackbody”
• ε<1 → “greybody”

Radiative Thermal Equilibrium
Greybody in thermal equilibrium with enclosure
T1
T2
Thermal Equilibrium → T1 = T2

Relation between Emissivity and Absorption: A(, T)
For optically thick sample, A=1-R (R=reflectivity)

Detailed Balance
• Second Law of Thermodynamics implies that T1 must remain equal to T2
– (Cannot create heat gradient without applying work)
• At each wavelength: ε(, T) = A (, T) • Same argument applies to non-normal
incidence: ε(, Θ, T) = A (, Θ, T) • For optically dense object:
ε(, Θ, T) = 1 - R(, Θ, T)

Emissivity of Materials
• Highly reflective materials are low emissive materials(Reflective materials in visible are not
necessarily reflective in IR)
• Vacuum thermos bottles are coated with reflective metal
• So why are house radiators painted silver?
