摘要：
热辐射发射是一个具有基础意义和技术价值的物理过程。从不同研究路径来看，热辐射既可被视为热传递的基本机制之一，也可被看作光子产生的基本量子现象，或电磁波的传播。然而，不同于激光器或天线等传统光子源发出的光，热辐射具有宽带、全向和非偏振的特征。由于这些最终与其固有的非相干本质相关的特性，调控热辐射构成了一项具有挑战性的问题。纳米光子学领域的最新进展产生了一整套人工平台，从空间结构材料，到更近出现的时间调制介质，为增强对电磁波的控制和操纵提供了富有前景的途径，覆盖从远场到近场区域。鉴于纳米光子学与热发射领域之间持续存在的平行发展，这些最新成果已被用于处理辐射热过程，从而构成了热发射工程的当前基础。在这篇综述中，我们考察了这一蓬勃发展的研究领域所取得的一些主要突破，内容涵盖基础方面、理论极限、新现象的出现、实际应用、挑战以及未来前景。
英文摘要：
The emission of thermal radiation is a physical process of fundamental and technological interest. From different approaches, thermal radiation can be regarded either as one of the basic mechanisms of heat transfer, as a fundamental quantum phenomenon of photon production, or as the propagation of electromagnetic waves. However, unlike light emanating from conventional photonic sources, such as lasers or antennas, thermal radiation is characterized for being broadband, omnidirectional, and unpolarized. Due to these features, ultimately tied to its inherently incoherent nature, taming the thermal radiation constitutes a challenging issue. Latest advances in the field of nanophotonics have led to a whole set of artificial platforms, ranging from spatially structured materials, and much more recently, time-modulated media, offering promising avenues for enhancing the control and manipulation of electromagnetic waves, from far to near-field regimes. Given the ongoing parallelism between the fields of nanophotonics and thermal emission, these recent developments have been harnessed to deal with radiative thermal processes, thereby conforming the current basis of thermal emission engineering. In this review, we survey some of the main breakthroughs carried out in this burgeoning research field, from fundamental aspects, theoretical limits, the emergence of new phenomena, practical applications, challenges, and future prospects.
