Towards a black body for near-field thermal radiation

S. -A. Biehs, M. Tschikin, P. Ben-Abdallah

We study the near-field heat exchange between hyperbolic materials and demonstrate that these media are able to support broadband frustrated modes which transport heat by photon tu…

Radiative cooling of nanoparticles close to a surface

M. Tschikin, S. -A. Biehs, P. Ben-Abdallah +1

We study the radiative cooling of polar and metallic nanoparticles immersed in a thermal bath close to a partially reflecting surface. The dynamics of relaxation is investigated at…

Statistical properties of spontaneous emission near a rough surface

Svend-Age Biehs, Jean-Jacques Greffet

We study the lifetime of the excited state of an atom or molecule near a plane surface with a given random surface roughness. In particular, we discuss the impact of the scattering…

Many-body radiative heat transfer theory

Philippe Ben-Abdallah, Svend-Age Biehs, Karl Joulain

In this Letter a N-body theory for the radiative heat exchange in thermally non equilibrated discrete systems of finite size objects is presented. We report strong exaltation effec…

Modulation of near-field heat transfer between two gratings

Svend-Age Biehs, Felipe S. S. Rosa, Philippe Ben-Abdallah

We present a theoretical study of near-field heat transfer between two uniaxial anisotropic planar structures. We investigate how the distance and relative orientation (with respec…

Perturbation theory for plasmonic eigenvalues

Daniel Grieser, Hannes Uecker, Svend-Age Biehs +3

We develop a perturbative approach for calculating, within the quasistatic approximation, the shift of surface resonances in response to a deformation of a dielectric volume. Our s…
