A Thermal Diode Based on Nanoscale Thermal Radiation.
TLDR
The metal-insulator transition of VO2 makes it possible to achieve large differences in the heat flow between Si and VO2 when the direction of the temperature gradient is reversed, demonstrating the feasibility of accomplishing near-field-based rectification of heat.
A simple radiative thermal diode
We present a thermal rectification device concept based on far-field radiative exchange between two selective emitters. Rectification is achieved due to the fact that one of the selective emitters…
