Researchers have developed a method to control the direction of heat flow in crystals. This miniature device could eventually be used to create advanced thermal-management systems in electronic ...

For years, scientists have known that phonons (vibrations of atoms) carry heat through solids. However, when two different materials come in contact, like in a computer chip, these vibrations often ...

“Experimental validation shows the fabricated superscatterer amplifies the thermal scattering signature of a small insulated ...

The researchers have made a major advance in controlling radiative heat flow at the nanoscale by combining topological physics with thermal metaphotonics. Their study, published in npj Metamaterials, ...
