Thermal memory: a storage of phononic information
Lei Wang, Baowen Li
Memory is an indispensable element for computer besides logic gates. In this Letter we report a model of thermal memory. We demonstrate via numerical simulation that thermal (phono…
Thermal transistor: Heat flux switching and modulating
Wei Chung Lo, Lei Wang, Baowen Li
Thermal transistor is an efficient heat control device which can act as a heat switch as well as a heat modulator. In this paper, we study systematically one-dimensional and two-di…
Thermal Logic Gates: Computation with phonons
Lei Wang, Baowen Li
Logic gates are basic digital elements for computers. We build up thermal logic gates that can perform similar operations as their electronic counterparts. The thermal logic gates…
The ratchet effect and the transporting islands in the chaotic sea
Lei Wang, Giuliano Benenti, Giulio Casati +1
We study directed transport in a classical deterministic dissipative system. We consider the generic case of mixed phase space and show that large ratchet currents can be generated…
Anomalous heat conduction and anomalous diffusion in nonlinear lattices, single walled nanotubes, and billiard gas channels
Baowen Li, Jiao Wang, Lei Wang +1
We study anomalous heat conduction and anomalous diffusion in low dimensional systems ranging from nonlinear lattices, single walled carbon nanotubes, to billiard gas channels. We…
