Superballistic transport of thermal photons in confined many-body systems
Jian Dong, Junming Zhao, Philippe Ben-Abdallah +1
Ballistic transport, realized when the system size is smaller than the mean free path of energy carriers, is traditionally regarded as the ultimate limit for energy transfer. Here,…
Many-body interaction on near-field radiative heat transfer between two nanoparticles caused by proximate particle ensembles
Baokun Liu, Minggang Luo, Junming Zhao +2
Near-field radiative heat transfer (NFRHT) has received growing attention because of its high intensity far beyond the Planck's black-body limit. Insertion of a third object in pro…
Extinction by plasmonic nanoparticles in dispersive and dissipative media
Shangyu Zhang, Jian Dong, Wenjie Zhang +2
Extinction of small metallic spheres has been well understood through the classical Mie theory when the host medium is dispersive and transparent. However, the role of host dissipa…
Photonic p-n Junction: An Ideal Near-Field Heat Flux Modulator
Deyu Xu, Junming Zhao, Linhua Liu
Using a pair of p- and n-type semiconductors separated by a nanoscale vacuum gap, we introduce an optoelectronics element prototype, "photonic p-n junction", as an analogue of the…
Photothermal behavior for two-dimensional nanoparticle ensembles: Multiple scattering and thermal accumulation effects
Minggang Luo, Junming Zhao, Linhua Liu +1
Light-assisted micro-nanoscale temperature control in complex nanoparticle network attracts lots of research interests. Many efforts have been put on the optical properties of the…
Improved transmission method for measuring the optical extinction coefficient of micro/nano particle suspensions
X. C. Li, J. M. Zhao, C. C. Wang +1
Extinction coefficient is fundamental to analyze radiative transport in micro/nano particle suspensions. In the traditional transmission method for measuring the extinction coeffic…
Monte Carlo method for polarized radiative transfer in gradient-index media
J. M. Zhao, J. Y. Tan, L. H. Liu
Light transfer in gradient-index media generally follows curved ray trajectories, which will cause light beam to converge or diverge during transfer and induce the rotation of pola…
