Saturation of radiative heat transfer due to many-body thermalization

Ivan Latella, Riccardo Messina, Svend-Age Biehs +2

Radiative heat transfer between two bodies saturates at very short separation distances due to the nonlocal optical response of the materials. In this work, we show that the presen…

Green-Kubo relation for thermal radiation in non-reciprocal systems

F. Herz, S. -A. Biehs

We rederive the Green-Kubo relation establishing a connection between the near- and far-field heat transfer between two objects out of equilibrium to the equilibrium fluctuations o…

Harvesting the electromagnetic energy confined close to a hot body

Philippe Ben-Abdallah, Svend-Age Biehs

In the close vicinity of a hot body, at distances smaller than the thermal wavelength, a high electromagnetic energy density exists due to the presence of evanescent fields radiate…

Thermomechanical bistability of phase-transition oscillators driven by near-field heat exchange

Marta Reina, Riccardo Messina, Svend-Age Biehs +1

Systems with multistable equilibrium states are of tremendous importance in information science to conceive logic gates. Here we predict that simple phase-transition oscillators dr…

Radiative thermal diode driven by non-reciprocal surface waves

Annika Ott, Riccardo Messina, Philippe Ben-Abdallah +1

We demonstrate the possibility to rectify the nanoscale radiative heat flux between two nanoparticles by coupling them with the nonreciprocal surface modes of a magneto-optical sub…
