Quantized thermal transport in single-atom junctions

Our new work on quantized thermal transport in single-atom junctions was published today in Science. This is the result of my collaboration with Pramod Reddy and Edgar Meyhofer (University of Michigan) and Fabian Pauly and Peter Nielaba (University of Konstanz). This contribution was possible due to the hard work of several brilliant PhD students and post-docs: Longji Cui, Wonho Jeong, and Sunghoon Hur (University of Michigan), and Manuel Matt and Jan Klöckner (University of Konstanz).

Radiative heat transfer in the extreme near-field regime

Our new work on radiative heat transfer in the extreme near-field regime was published today in Nature Communications. This is again a result of our collaboration with Pramod Reddy and Edgar Meyhofer (University of Michigan) and our department colleagues Johannes Feist and Francisco J. Garcia-Vidal (Nanophotonics Group, UAM). This contribution is part of the thesis work of Víctor Fernández-Hurtado. Read more ...
