5. Conclusions
- In the equivalent thermal conductivity of a periodic cubic frame structure, the smaller the cell size of the structure, the larger the proportion of thermal radiation. When the structure size is comparable to the characteristic wavelength, the equivalent radiative thermal conductivity increases sharply.
- Periodic cubic frame sliver has better thermal radiation properties in the near infrared band while fluctuates a lot in the visible band.
- The reflection of the periodic cubic frame sliver enhanced at 680 nm–1.28 μm, with the strongest reflectivity happened at 960 nm wavelength; and the absorption enhanced at a wavelength band of 1 μm–1.7 μm, as the strongest absorption happened when wavelength is 1.425 μm.
- The thermal radiation mechanism of periodic cubic frame structure was explained by the SPP and MPs resonance jointly form a resonance in the near infrared band, while the cavity formed inside the MPs excitation of the absorption peak phenomenon.
