Experimental observation of nanoscale radiative heat flow due to surface plasmons in graphene and doped silicon
P. J. van Zwol, S. Thiele, C. Berger +2
Owing to its two dimensional electronic structure, graphene exhibits many unique properties. One of them is a wave vector and temperature dependent plasmon in the infrared range. T…
Casimir force measurements in Au-Au and Au-Si cavities at low temperature
J. Laurent, H. Sellier, A. Mosset +2
We report on measurements of the Casimir force in a sphere-plane geometry using a cryogenic force microscope to move the force probe in situ over different materials. We show how t…
Plasmons enhance near-field radiative heat transfer for graphene-covered dielectrics
V. B. Svetovoy, P. J. van Zwol, J. Chevrier
It is shown that a graphene layer on top of a dielectric slab can dramatically influence the ability of this dielectric for radiative heat exchange. Effect of graphene is related t…
Tuning near field radiative heat flux through surface excitations with a metal insulator transition
P. J. van Zwol, L. Ranno, J. Chevrier
The control of heat flow is a formidable challenge due to lack of good thermal insulators. Promising new oppor-tunities for heat flow control were recently theoretically discovered…
Emissivity measurements with an Atomic Force Microscope
Pieter Jan van Zwol, Laurent Ranno, Joel Chevrier
We show that functionalized micromechanical bilayer levers can be used as sensitive probes to accurately measure radiative heat flux in vacuum between two materials at the micro sc…
Large variation in the boundary-condition slippage for a rarefied gas flowing between two surfaces
J. Laurent, A. Drezet, H. Sellier +2
We study the slippage of a gas along mobile rigid walls in the sphere-plane confined geometry and find that it varies considerably with pressure. The classical no-slip boundary con…
