We present a general and convenient first principle method to study near-field radiative heat transfer. We show that the Landauer-like expression of heat flux can be expressed in terms of a frequency and wave-vector dependent macroscopic dielectric function which can be obtained from the linear response density functional theory. A random phase approximation is used to calculate the response function. We computed the heat transfer in three systems -- graphene, molybdenum disulfide (MoS$_2$), and hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN). Our results show that the near-field heat flux exceeds the blackbody limit up to four orders of magnitude. With the increase of the distances between two parallel sheets, a $1/d^2$ dependence of heat flux is shown, consistent with Coulombs law. The heat transfer capacity is sensitive to the dielectric properties of materials. Influences from chemical potential and temperature are also discussed. Our method can be applied to a wide range of materials including systems with inhomogeneities.
We explore in the present work the near-field radiative heat transfer between two semi-infinite parallel nonlocal dielectric planes by means of fluctuational electrodynamics. We use atheory for the nonlocal dielectric permittivityfunction proposed by
We derive shape-independent limits to the spectral radiative heat-transfer rate between two closely spaced bodies, generalizing the concept of a black body to the case of near-field energy transfer. Through conservation of energy and reciprocity, we
The radiative heat transfer between gold nanoparticle layers is presented using the coupled dipole method. Gold nanoparticles are modelled as effective electric and magnetic dipoles interacting via electromagnetic fluctuations. The effect of higher-o
We demonstrate in this work that the use of metasurfaces provides a viable strategy to largely tune and enhance near-field radiative heat transfer between extended structures. In particular, using a rigorous coupled wave analysis, we predict that Si-
Many-body physics aims to understand emergent properties of systems made of many interacting objects. This article reviews recent progress on the topic of radiative heat transfer in many-body systems consisting of thermal emitters interacting in the
