Active Radiative Thermal Switching with Graphene Plasmon Resonators.
We theoretically demonstrate a near-field radiative thermal switch based on thermally excited surface plasmons in graphene resonators. The high tunability of graphene enables substantial modulation of near-field radiative heat transfer, which, when combined with the use of resonant structures, overcomes the intrinsically broadband nature of thermal radiation. In canonical geometries, we use non...
متن کاملGraphene-Based Periodic Gate Field Effect Transistor Structures for Terahertz Applications
We report on theoretical investigation of graphene based Field Effect Transistor (FET) structures for resonant absorption of terahertz (THz) radiation by the plasmons excited in the high sheet concentration and high carrier mobility active layers. Metallic grating gates with varying periods were used to couple the THz radiation into the plasmons in the active region of the devices. Such grating...
متن کاملCoupling light into graphene plasmons through surface acoustic waves.
We propose a scheme for coupling laser light into graphene plasmons with the help of electrically generated surface acoustic waves. The surface acoustic wave forms a diffraction grating which allows us to excite the long lived phononlike branch of the hybridized graphene plasmon-phonon dispersion with infrared laser light. Our approach avoids patterning the graphene sheet, does not rely on comp...
متن کاملEffects of heat generation and thermal radiation on steady MHD flow near a stagnation point on a linear stretching sheet in porous medium and presence of variable thermal conductivity and mass transfer
The present paper was aimed to study the effects of variable thermal conductivity and heat generation on the flow of a viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid in the presence of a uniform transverse magnetic field, thermal radiation, porous medium, mass transfer, and variable free stream near a stagnation point on a non-conducting stretching sheet. Equations of continuity, momentum...
متن کاملTunable hybrid surface waves supported by a graphene layer
We study electromagnetic waves localized near a surface of a semi-infinite dielectric medium covered by a layer of graphene in the presence of a strong external magnetic field. We demonstrate that a novel type of hybrid TE–TM polarized surface plasmons can propagate along the graphene layer. We analyze the effect of the Hall conductivity on the polarization properties of these hybrid surface wa...
