Mesoscopic photon heat transistor.
We show that the heat transport between two bodies, mediated by electromagnetic fluctuations, can be controlled with an intermediate quantum circuit--leading to the device concept of a mesoscopic photon heat transistor (MPHT). Our theoretical analysis is based on a novel Meir-Wingreen-Landauer-type of conductance formula, which gives the photonic heat current through an arbitrary circuit elemen...
متن کاملDisorder-based graphene spintronics.
The use of the spin of the electron as the ultimate logic bit-in what has been dubbed spintronics-can lead to a novel way of thinking about information flow. At the same time single-layer graphene has been the subject of intense research due to its potential application in nanoscale electronics. While defects can significantly alter the electronic properties of nanoscopic systems, the lack of c...
متن کاملHeat transport in mesoscopic systems
Phonon heat transport in mesoscopic systems is investigated using methods analogous to the Landauer description of electrical conductance. A “universal heat conductance” expression that depends on the properties of the conducting pathway only through the mode cutoff frequencies is derived. Corrections due to reflections at the junction between the thermal body and the conducting bridge are foun...
متن کاملBook Review: Spintronics-Based Computing
If you’re a casual reader looking for a spellbinding page-turner, or a curious amateur technophile, this is not the book for you. It is filled with grammatical errors and clumsy diction, the tone is as dry as the Gobi Desert, and there is no graceful introduction beyond the excellent summary in the short Foreword by Albert Fert. After that the various authors plunge directly into advanced techn...
متن کامل8 Spintronics — Spin - Based Electronics
Spintronics is an acronym for a spin transport electronics and was originally used as a name for the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) program. In 1994, DARPA started to develop magnetic field sensors and memory based on the giant magnetoresistance (GMR) effect and spindependent tunneling. The overall goal for the Spintronics program was to create a new generation of electronic ...
