We present a comprehensive theoretical study of the magnetic field dependence of the near-field radiative heat transfer (NFRHT) between two parallel plates. We show that when the plates are made of doped semiconductors, the near-field…

Thermal diode, a type of device that allows heat to flow in one direction preferentially, can be employed in many thermal applications. However, if the mechanical compliance of the thermal diode is poor, which prevents its intimate contact…
The ability to break Kirchhoff s law is of fundamental importance in thermal radiation. Various nonreciprocal emitters have been proposed to break the balance between absorption and emission. However, the thicknesses of the nonreciprocal…
Asymmetric heat transfer systems, often referred to as thermal diodes or thermal rectifiers, have garnered increasing interest due to their wide range of application possibilities. Most of those previous macroscopic thermal diodes either…
As an analogue to electrical diode, a radiative thermal diode allows radiation to transfer more efficiently in one direction than in the opposite direction by operating in a contactless mode. In this study, we demonstrated that, within the…
We report on the fabrication of nano-devices on the \hkl[-1 0 1] surface of a Weyl semimetal, a macroscopic crystal of TaAs, and low-temperature transport measurements. We can implement electron beam lithography by peeling off and…
In a recent paper [R. Soto-Garrido and E. Mu\~noz, J. Phys. Condens. Matter 30, 195302 (2018)], we studied the electronic transport properties in Weyl semimetals (WSMs) submitted to the combined effects of torsional mechanical strain and…
The search for materials with large thermopower is of great practical interest. Dirac and Weyl semimetals have recently proven to exhibit superior thermoelectric properties, particularly when subjected to a quantizing magnetic field. Here…
Objects around us constantly emit and absorb thermal radiation. The emission and absorption processes are governed by two fundamental radiative properties: emissivity and absorptivity.For reciprocal systems, the emissivity and absorptivity…
Phase change materials (PCMs) play a pivotal role in the development of advanced thermal devices due to their reversible phase transitions, which drastically modify their thermal and optical properties. In this study, we present an…
Stefan-Boltzmann's law indicates that far-field blackbody radiation scales at the fourth power of temperature. The temperature dependence of radiative heat transfer in the near field is expected to be very different due to the contribution…

Near-field radiative heat transfer (NFHT) research currently suffers from an imbalance between numerous theoretical studies, as opposed to experimental reports that remain, in proportion, relatively scarce. Existing experimental platforms…
In order to identify the basic conditions for thermal rectification we investigate a simple model with non-uniform, graded mass distribution. The existence of thermal rectification is theoretically predicted and numerically confirmed,…
