Heat Transfer between Weakly Coupled Systems
B. N. J. Persson, A. I. Volokitin, H. Ueba
We study the heat transfer between weakly coupled systems with flat interface. We present simple analytical results which can be used to estimate the heat transfer coefficient. As…
Resonant photon tunneling enhancement of the radiative heat transfer
A. I. Volokitin, B. N. J. Persson
We study the dependence of the heat transfer between two semi-infinite solids on the dielectric properties of the bodies. We show that the heat transfer at short separation between…
Adsorbate vibrational mode enhancement of radiative heat transfer
A. I. Volokitin, B. N. J. Persson
We show that the radiative heat transfer between two solid surfaces at short separation may increase by many order of magnitude when the surfaces are covered by adsorbates. In this…
Theory of friction: contribution from fluctuating electromagnetic field
A. I. Volokitin, B. N. J. Persson
We calculate the friction force between two semi-infinite solids in relative parallel motion (velocity ), and separated by a vacuum gap of width . The friction force result f…
Radiative heat transfer between nanostructures
A. I. Volokitin, B. N. J. Persson
We simplify the formalism of Polder and Van Hove [Phys.Rev.B {\bf 4}, 3303(1971)], which was developed to calculate the heat transfer between macroscopic and nanoscale bodies of ar…
Dissipative Van der Waals interaction between a small particle and a metal surface
A. I. Volokitin, B. N. J. Persson
We use a general theory of the fluctuating electromagnetic field to calculate the friction force acting on a small neutral particle, e.g., a physisorbed molecule, or a nanoscale ob…
