Giant radiative thermal rectification using an intrinsic semiconductor film
Qizhang Li, Qun Chen, Bai Song
Rectification of heat flow via a thermal diode is not only of fundamental interest, but can also enable a range of novel applications in thermal management and energy conversion. H…

Radiative thermal diode via hyperbolic metamaterials
Qizhang Li, Haiyu He, Qun Chen +1
Hyperbolic metamaterials (HMMs) support propagating waves with arbitrarily large wavevectors over broad spectral ranges, and are uniquely valuable for engineering radiative thermal…

Thin-film radiative thermal diode with large rectification
Qizhang Li, Haiyu He, Qun Chen +1
We propose a mechanism to substantially rectify radiative heat flow by matching thin films of metal-to-insulator transition materials and polar dielectrics in the electromagnetic n…
