Right after the first edition was published in 2007, I was invited to give seminars at a number
of universities in several countries. At that time, many people considered nanotechnology …

This article reviews the recent advances in near-field radiative energy transfer, particularly in
its fundamentals and applications. When the geometrical features of radiating objects or …

The present paper theoretically demonstrates coherent thermal emission in the infrared
region by exciting magnetic polaritons between metallic gratings and an opaque metallic …

The ability to manufacture, control, and manipulate structures at extremely small scales is
the hallmark of modern technologies, including microelectronics, MEMS/NEMS, and nano …

Spectral distributions of radiative heat flux between two thin silicon carbide films separated
by sub-wavelength distances in vacuum are analysed. An analytical expression for the near …

Coherent thermal emission from surface relief gratings holds promise for spectral and
directional control of thermal radiation but is limited to transverse magnetic waves, which …

A large number of recent publications dealt with enhanced emission properties of
micro/nanostructures by the excitation of surface plasmon or phonon polaritons. Some used …

Near-field radiative heat transfer between isotropic, dielectric-based metamaterials is
analyzed. A potassium bromide host medium comprised of silicon carbide (SiC) spheres …

We study, for the first time, the spectral responsivity of femtosecond laser-induced periodic
surface structures (FLIPSSs) in the UV, vis, and IR wavelength ranges. We find that FLIPSSs …

We report a general model to deal with near-field radiative heat transfer for the layered
magnetic media, which is also applicable for layered nonmagnetic media. In the derivation …
