Radiative Thermal Rectification between SiC and SiO2

Karl Joulain, Younes Ezzahri, Jérémie Drevillon +2

By means of fluctuationnal electrodynamics, we calculate radiative heat flux between two pla-nar materials respectively made of SiC and SiO2. More specifically, we focus on a first…

Vacuum induced phonon transfer between two solid dielectric materials: Illustrating the case of Casimir force coupling

Younes Ezzahri, Karl Joulain

The natural transition from the radiative regime to the conductive regime of heat transfer between two identical isotropic dielectric solid materials, is questioned by investigatin…

Radiative thermal rectification using superconducting materials

Elyes Nefzaoui, Karl Joulain, Jérémie Drevillon +1

Thermal rectification phenomenon is a manifestation of an asymmetry in the heat flux when the temperature difference between two interacting thermal reservoirs is reversed. In this…

A simple radiative thermal diode

Elyes Nefzaoui, Jérémie Drevillon, Younès Ezzahri +1

We present a thermal rectification device concept based on far-field radiative exchange between two selective emitters. Rectification is achieved due to the fact that one of the se…

Maximal near-field radiative heat transfer between two plates

Elyes Nefzaoui, Younès Ezzahri, Jérémie Drevillon +1

A parametric study of Drude and Lorentz models performances in maximizing near-field radiative heat transfer between two semi-infinite planes separated by nanometric distances at r…

Transient Energy and Heat Transport in Metals: Effect of the Discrete Character of the Lattice

Younes Ezzahri, Karl Joulain, Ali Shakouri

A recently developed Shastry's formalism for energy transport is used to analyze the temporal and spatial behaviors of the energy and heat transport in metals under delta function…
