Thermal-Wave Diode

چکیده
The operation of thermal diodes is typically limited to narrow temperature ranges and low rectification steady-state heat currents. Despite their key application in computing, the analogy electronic counterparts, development operating with modulated currents has not received much attention. Based on spatiotemporal modulation a material's conductivity volumetric capacity, authors give proof principle diode that can rectify current waves. Rectification factors higher than 86% are obtained as frequencies driving propagation waves decrease.

A photon thermal diode
A thermal diode is a two-terminal nonlinear device that rectifies energy carriers (for example, photons, phonons and electrons) in the thermal domain, the heat transfer analogue to the familiar electrical diode. Effective thermal rectifiers could have an impact on diverse applications ranging from heat engines to refrigeration, thermal regulation of buildings and thermal logic. However, experim...

متن کاملAnalysis of thermal therapy using infrared diode lasers operated in continuous wave and pulsed mode
The design (software control) guidelines are presented for medical laser systems based on the analysis of the tissue temperature response to various lasers at both cw and pulsed modes. By solving the laser volume-heating diffusion equation, we analyze the roles of various laser and tissue (or water) parameters on the laser-heated solution temperature profiles, including laser intensity, pulse-w...
متن کاملThermal diode: rectification of heat flux.
By coupling two nonlinear one dimensional lattices, we demonstrate a thermal diode model that works in a wide range of system parameters. We provide numerical and analytical evidence for the underlying mechanism which allows heat flux in one direction while the system acts like an insulator when the temperature gradient is reversed. The possible experimental realization in nanoscale systems is ...
