Three-Phase and Unidirectional Heat Transfer
Smart thermal management by which ultra-high heat fluxes (i.e., q''> 100 W/cm²) are dissipated efficiently, is increasingly desirable for many applications in aerospace, electronic packaging, metallurgy, as the existing cooling solutions are highly constrained. For example, the cooling strategy for …

Experimental investigations on the influence of curvature and materials on near-field thermal radiation
The bimaterial cantilever based near-field thermal radiation measurement setup was an experimental breakthrough in the field of near-field thermal radiation. The setup distinguishes itself from other experimental configurations at that time by allowing a direct measurement of the near-field thermal …

Energy relaxation and thermal rectification in carbon devices
… in the device because SiO$_2$ has a much lower thermal conductivity (1.4 W/m-K) than silicon (150 W/m-K). This leads to self-heating, mobility degradation and unreliable performance over time. This work examines the physics of energy relaxation in nanoscale transistors based on new popular …
