Equilibrium and Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics of a Photon Gas in the Near Field
Agustín Pérez-Madrid, Luciano Calheiros Lapas, Miguel Rubí
In this paper we study the near-field thermodynamics of a photon gas at equilibrium as well as out-of-equilibrium in the presence of dissipative effects. As a consequence of Heisen…
Near-field thermodynamics: Useful work, efficiency, and energy harvesting
Ivan Latella, Agustín Pérez-Madrid, Luciano C. Lapas +1
We show that the maximum work that can be obtained from the thermal radiation emitted between two planar sources in the near-field regime is much larger than that corresponding to…
A thermokinetic approach to radiative heat transfer at the nanoscale
Agustín Pérez-Madrid, Luciano C. Lapas, J. Miguel Rubí
Radiative heat exchange at the nanoscale presents a challenge for several areas due to its scope and nature. Here, we provide a thermokinetic description of microscale radiative en…
Nonresonant contributions to energy transfer through micron-size gaps between neighboring nanostructures
Luciano C. Lapas, Agustín Pérez-Madrid, J. Miguel Rubí
Current theoretical approaches to the analysis of radiative heat exchange at the nanoscale are based on Rytov's stochastic electrodynamics. However, this approach falls short in th…
Heat exchange between two interacting nanoparticles beyond the fluctuation-dissipation regime
Agustin Pérez-Madrid, Luciano C. Lapas, J. Miguel Rubí
We show that the observed non-monotonic behavior of the thermal conductance between two nanoparticles when they are brought into contact is originated by an intricate phase space d…
