Nanophotonic engineering provides an effective platform to manipulate thermal emission on-
demand, enabling unprecedented heat management superior to conventional bulk …

Many-body physics aims to understand emergent properties of systems made of many
interacting objects. This review examines recent progress on the topic of radiative heat …

A chiral absorber of light can emit spin-polarized (circularly polarized) thermal radiation
based on Kirchhoff's law which equates spin-resolved emissivity with spin-resolved …

Many chiral absorbers have been proposed to obtain selective absorption for left circularly
polarized (LCP) and right circularly polarized (RCP) waves. However, it is difficult to realize …

We study the radiative heat flux between two nanoparticles in close vicinity to the natural
hyperbolic material h-BN, with its optical axis oriented parallel to the interface. We show that …

Thermal emission caused by the thermal motion of the charged particles is commonly
broadband, un-polarized, and incoherent, like a melting pot of electromagnetic waves, which …

The emission of thermal radiation is a physical process of fundamental and technological
interest. From different approaches, thermal radiation can be regarded as one of the basic …

We demonstrate nonreciprocal far-field thermal emission and nonreciprocal near-field
radiative heat transfer of Weyl semimetal nanoparticles when the circular thermal emission …

Planck's law ignores but does not prohibit black-body radiation (BBR) from being circularly
polarized. BBR from nanostructured filaments with twisted geometry from nanocarbon or …

The interplay of spin angular momentum and thermal radiation is a frontier area of interest to
nanophotonics as well as topological physics. Here, we show that a thick planar slab of a …
