Adiabatic Thermal Radiation Pumps for Thermal Photonics
Adiabatic Thermal Radiation Pumps for Thermal Photonics
We control the direction and magnitude of thermal radiation, between two bodies at equal temperature (in thermal equilibrium), by invoking the concept of adiabatic pumping. Specifically, within a resonant near-field electromagnetic heat transfer framework, we utilize an instantaneous scattering matrix approach to unveil the critical role of wave interference in …
