Theory

Generally, the laws of thermodynamics preclude the spontaneous transformation of thermal kT energy from IR to VUV levels. But this is not true for absorbed IR radiation  confined inside nanopaticles (NPs) . Cavities also confine IR radiation but are relatively unlikely to naturally form compared to NPs. QED induced EM radiation follows from the most basic laws of physics - that low frequency IR radiation is suppressed in a high frequency EM confinement - the generality of which is applicable to NPs in the solid and liquid state. Typically, IR radiation absorbed by a NP is EM energy loss that cannot be conserved by an increase in temperature because the specific heat vanishes at  VUV confinement frequencies. Conservation then proceeds  by an equivalent gain in EM energy at the NP resonant frequency. The NP remains at ambient temperature so it can be said the VUV radiation is produced absent hightemperatures.

Research Interests

QED induced EM radiation.

IR radiation absorbed in nanoparticles (NPs) is induced by QED to increase in frequency to the EM confinement frequency of the NP.  Typically, VUV or higher EM radiation is produced.
