The best source that I have found so far is the following paper "Temperature dependent emissivity of Silicon related materials and structures", IEEE trans. on semiconductor manufacturing, Vol 11, No. 1, Feb. 1998. If there are other comprehensive ones, I would like to hear about those too... Cheers, Ram -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ram N.
