Electronic heat current rectification in hybrid superconducting devices
Antonio Fornieri, María José Martínez-Pérez, Francesco Giazotto
In this work, we review and expand recent theoretical proposals for the realization of electronic thermal diodes based on tunnel-junctions of normal metal and superconducting thin…
A normal metal tunnel-junction heat diode
A. Fornieri, M. J. Martinez-Perez, F. Giazotto
We propose a low-temperature thermal rectifier consisting of a chain of three tunnel-coupled normal metal electrodes. We show that a large heat rectification is achievable if the t…
Rectification of electronic heat current by a hybrid thermal diode
M. J. Martínez-Pérez, A. Fornieri, F. Giazotto
We report the realization of an ultra-efficient low-temperature hybrid heat current rectifier, thermal counterpart of the well-known electric diode. Our design is based on a tunnel…
