Near-field refrigeration and tunable heat exchange through four-wave mixing

Chinmay Khandekar, Riccardo Messina, Alejandro W. Rodriguez

We modify and extend a recently proposed four-wave mixing scheme [Opt. Express 25 (19),23164 (2017)] for achieving near-field thermal upconversion and energy transfer, to demonstra…

Ballistic near-field heat transport in dense many-body systems

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

Radiative heat-transport mediated by near-field interactions is known to be superdiffusive in dilute, many-body systems. In this Letter we use a generalized Landauer theory of radi…

Graphene-based amplification and tuning of near-field radiative heat transfer between dissimilar polar materials

Riccardo Messina, Philippe Ben-Abdallah, Brahim Guizal +1

The radiative heat transfer between two dielectrics can be strongly enhanced in the near field in the presence of surface phonon-polariton resonances. Nevertheless, the spectral mi…

Overcoming limits to near-field radiative heat transfer in uniform planar media through multilayer optimization

Weiliang Jin, Riccardo Messina, Alejandro W. Rodriguez

Radiative heat transfer between uniform plates is bounded by the narrow range and limited contribution of surface waves. Using a combination of analytical calculations and numerica…

Radiative heat transfer and nonequilibrium Casimir-Lifshitz force in many-body systems with planar geometry

Ivan Latella, Philippe Ben-Abdallah, Svend-Age Biehs +2

A general theory of photon-mediated energy and momentum transfer in N-body planar systems out of thermal equilibrium is introduced. It is based on the combination of the scattering…
