Journal ArticleDOI
Near-Field Thermal Transistor
TL;DR: A nanoscale analog of a field-effect transistor that is able to control the flow of heat exchanged by evanescent thermal photons between two bodies and opens up new perspectives concerning the development of contactless thermal circuits intended for information processing using the photon current rather than the electric current.
Journal ArticleDOI
Near-field heat transfer in a scanning thermal microscope.
Achim Kittel,Wolfgang Müller-Hirsch,Jürgen Parisi,Svend-Age Biehs,Daniel Reddig,Martin Holthaus +5 more
TL;DR: Measurements of the near-field heat transfer between the tip of a thermal profiler and planar material surfaces under ultrahigh vacuum conditions are presented and a heuristic model is discussed which yields fair agreement with the available data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hyperbolic metamaterials as an analog of a blackbody in the near field.
TL;DR: The near-field heat exchange between hyperbolic materials is studied and it is demonstrated that these media are able to support broadband frustrated modes which transport heat by photon tunneling with a high efficiency close to the theoretical limit.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phase-change radiative thermal diode
TL;DR: In this article, a radiative thermal diode which rectifies heat transport thanks to the phase transitions of materials is presented. But it is not suitable for use in contactless thermal circuits or in the conception of radiative coatings for thermal management.
Journal ArticleDOI
Many-Body Radiative Heat Transfer Theory
TL;DR: The theory extends the standard Polder and van Hove stochastic formalism used to evaluate heat exchanges between two objects isolated from their environment to a collection of objects in mutual interaction and gives a natural theoretical framework to investigate the photon heat transport properties of complex systems at the mesoscopic scale.
