Near-field thermal transport in a nanotip under laser irradiation.
We report on a systematic study of highly enhanced optical field and its induced thermal transport in nanotips under laser irradiation. The effects on electric field distribution caused by curvature radius, tip aspect ratio, and polarization angle of the incident laser are studied. Our Poynting vectors' study clearly shows that when a laser interacts with a metal tip, it is bent around the tip ...
متن کاملNear-field thermal transistor.
Using a block of three separated solid elements, a thermal source and drain together with a gate made of an insulator-metal transition material exchanging near-field thermal radiation, we introduce a nanoscale analog of a field-effect transistor that is able to control the flow of heat exchanged by evanescent thermal photons between two bodies. By changing the gate temperature around its critic...
متن کاملNear-field radiative cooling of nanostructures.
We measure near-field radiative cooling of a thermally isolated nanostructure up to a few degrees and show that in principle this process can efficiently cool down localized hotspots by tens of degrees at submicrometer gaps. This process of cooling is achieved without any physical contact, in contrast to heat transfer through conduction, thus enabling novel cooling capabilities. We show that th...
متن کاملShape-independent limits to near-field spectral radiative heat transfer
We derive shape-independent limits to the spectral radiative heat-transfer rate between two closely spaced bodies, generalizing the concept of a black body to the case of near-field energy transfer. Through conservation of energy and reciprocity, we show that each body of susceptibility χ can emit and absorb radiation at enhanced rates bounded by |χ|/ Imχ, optimally mediated by near-field photo...
