A thermal emission source is provided that has a structure capable of suppressing deterioration of an optical assembly over time. The thermal emission source includes an optical assembly (1) having an optical structure in which a member made of a semiconductor has a refractive index distribution so as to resonate with light of a wavelength shorter than a wavelength that corresponds to an absorption edge corresponding to a band gap of the semiconductor. The optical assembly (1) includes a coating structure (30) with a coating material that differs from the semiconductor of refractive portions (10) and through which light of a wavelength included in a wavelength range from visible light to far infrared rays can be transmitted.

A microelectromechanical light emitter component comprises an emitter layer structure of the microelectromechanical light emitter component and an inductive structure of the microelectromechanical light emitter component. The inductive structure of the microelectromechanical light emitter component is configured to generate current in the emitter layer structure by electromagnetic induction, such that the emitter layer structure emits light. The emitter layer structure is electrically insulated from the inductive structure.

A emitter is formed of a thin-film membrane disposed within a cavity so as to provide a output beam. The emitter may be configured to obtain broadband light. The emitter may enhance the emissivity of light over a broad spectral band.
