Electron tunneling induced thermoelectric effects
Mauricio Gómez Viloria, Riccardo Messina, Philippe Ben-Abdallah
We introduce a direct (Seebeck) and inverse (Peltier) thermoelectric effect induced by electron tunneling between closely separated conducting films. When a transverse temperature…
Electroluminescence and Energy Transfer Mediated by Hyperbolic Polaritons
L. Abou-Hamdan, A. Schmitt, R. Bretel +26
Under high electrical current, some materials can emit electromagnetic radiation beyond incandescence. This phenomenon, referred to as electroluminescence, leads to the efficient e…
Electronic heat tunneling between two metals beyond the WKB approximation
Mauricio Gómez Viloria, Philippe Ben-Abdallah, Riccardo Messina
Two metals at different temperatures separated by large gaps exchange heat under the form of electromagnetic radiation. When the separation distance is reduced and they approach co…
Atomistic modeling of extreme near-field heat transport across nanogaps between two polar dielectric materials
Yangyu Guo, Mauricio Gómez Viloria, Riccardo Messina +2
The understanding of extreme near-field heat transport across vacuum nanogaps between polar dielectric materials remains an open question. In this work, we present a molecular dyna…
Electroluminescence of the graphene 2D semi-metal
A. Schmitt, L. Abou-Hamdan, M. Tharrault +18
Electroluminescence, a non-thermal radiative process, is ubiquitous in semi-conductors and insulators but fundamentally precluded in metals. We show here that this restriction can…
Long-range super-Planckian heat transfer between nanoemitters in a resonant cavity
Kiryl Asheichyk, Philippe Ben-Abdallah, Matthias Krüger +1
We study radiative heat transfer between two nanoemitters placed inside different types of closed cavities by means of a fluctuational-electrodynamics approach. We highlight a very…
