Near-field radiative heat transfer (NFRHT) has been demonstrated to exceed the blackbody
limit due to the coupling effect of evanescent waves in the near-field regime, opening the …

Control of photoinduced forces allows nanoparticle manipulation, atom trapping, and
fundamental studies of light-matter interactions. Scanning probe microscopy enables the …

We analyze the heat transfer between two metals separated by a vacuum gap in the extreme
near-field regime. In this crossover regime between conduction and radiation, heat …

Extreme near-field heat transfer between metallic surfaces is a subject of debate as the state-
of-the-art theory and experiments are in disagreement on the energy carriers driving heat …

Two metals at different temperatures separated by large gaps exchange heat under the form
of electromagnetic radiation. When the separation distance is reduced and they approach …

Phonon transport across a vacuum gap separating intrinsic silicon crystals is predicted via
the three-dimensional atomistic Green's function method combined with first-principles …

Anti-Stokes Raman thermometry, a rapidly evolving field in Raman spectroscopy, was
investigated for in situ cellular temperature measurements─ a critical aspect in …

Radiative heat transfer between metals in the extreme near field in the presence of a
potential difference between them has been calculated. Because of the coupling between …

Calculations of the radiative and phonon heat transfer between metals in an extreme near
field in presence of electrostatic potential difference are given. Potential difference leads to a …

The mechanical displacements in piezoelectric materials carry along macroscopic electric
fields, allowing tunneling of acoustic waves across a vacuum gap beyond the charge-charge …
