متن کاملSufficient conditions for thermal rectification in hybrid quantum structures.
We analytically identify sufficient conditions for manifesting thermal rectification in two-terminal junctions, including a subsystem connected to two reservoirs, within the quantum master equation formalism. We recognize two classes of rectifiers. In type A rectifiers, the reservoirs' energy structure is dissimilar. In type B rectifiers, the baths are identical but include particles whose stat...
متن کاملHeat Flow in Classical and Quantum Systems and Thermal Rectification
The understanding of the underlying dynamical mechanisms which determine the macroscopic laws of heat conduction is a long standing task of non-equilibrium statistical mechanics. A better understanding of the mechanism of heat conduction may lead to potentially interesting applications based on the possibility to control the heat flow. Indeed, different models of thermal rectifiers has been rec...
متن کاملThermal rectification through vacuum.
We propose a mechanism for photon mediated thermal rectification through vacuum relying only on the temperature dependence of electromagnetic resonances. We also propose an example implementation consisting of two polytypes of silicon carbide, which exploits the interaction of temperature dependent surface phonon polaritons to achieve significant rectification.
متن کاملMagnetically induced thermal rectification.
We consider far from equilibrium heat transport in chaotic billiard chains with noninteracting charged particles in the presence of nonuniform transverse magnetic field. If half of the chain is placed in a strong magnetic field, or if the strength of the magnetic field has a large gradient along the chain, heat current is shown to be asymmetric with respect to exchange of the temperatures of th...
