Fundamental limits to radiative heat transfer: theory
Sean Molesky, Prashanth S. Venkataram, Weiliang Jin +1
Near-field radiative heat transfer between bodies at the nanoscale can surpass blackbody limits on thermal radiation by orders of magnitude due to contributions from evanescent ele…
-operator bounds on angle-integrated absorption and thermal radiation for arbitrary objects
Sean Molesky, Weiliang Jin, Prashanth S. Venkataram +1
We derive fundamental per-channel bounds on angle-integrated absorption and thermal radiation for arbitrary bodies---for any given material susceptibility and bounding region---tha…
Fundamental limits to radiative heat transfer: the limited role of nanostructuring in the near field
Prashanth S. Venkataram, Sean Molesky, Weiliang Jin +1
In a complementary article, we exploited algebraic properties of Maxwell's equations and fundamental principles such as electromagnetic reciprocity and passivity, to derive fundame…
