Thermal control is of critical importance for normal operation of spacecraft. Given thermal radiation is the only means of heat dissipation in space, an efficient thermal control approach for spacecraft is to coat the radiator with a tunable-emittance skin that can tune its heat dissipation according to various thermal conditions. The existing schemes solely relying on far-field thermal radiation, which are based on mechanical, electrochromic or thermochromic working principles, are difficult to combine the advantages of all-solid-state structure, actively and accurate tuning, and large tuning range of heat flux. In this work, we propose a near-field radiation assisted (NFRA) smart skin for thermal control which can tune the heat rejection accurately and in a large range. It contains a metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) structure, where the carrier distribution in the semiconductor layer can be electrically altered. In this way, the near-field heat flux, and ultimately the skin emission power expressed using effective emittance, can be controlled as a function of the applied voltage. The variation range of the effective emittance can exceed 0.7 when adjusting the applied voltage from -10 V to 100 V with our preliminary design. This work opens a new way of smart skin design for active spacecraft thermal control.

When two objects at different temperatures are separated by a vacuum gap they can exchange heat by radiation only. At large separation distances (far-field regime) the amount of transferred heat flux is limited by Stefan-Boltzmanns law (blackbody lim
it). In contrast, at subwavelength distances (near-field regime) this limit can be exceeded by orders of magnitude thanks to the contributions of evanescent waves. This article reviews the recent progress on the passive and active control of near-field radiative heat exchange in two- and many-body systems.
Taking advantage of phase-transition and reconfigurable metamaterials, dynamic control of nanoscale thermal modulation can be achieved through the near-field radiative thermal rectification devices. In this work, an active-tuning near-field thermal r
ectifier using reconfigurable phase-transition metamaterials is explored. The rectifier has two terminals separated by vacuum, working under a controllable operational temperature around the critical temperature of the phase-transition material VO2. One of the terminals is a stretchable structure made of PDMS thin film and grating consisting of various types of phase-transition material. The effects of various inclusion forms and all the related geometric parameters are well analyzed. The controllable nanoscale thermal modulation can be achieved and the ultrahigh rectification ratios of 23.7 and 19.8, the highest values ever predicted, can be obtained for two deformation scenarios, respectively. It will shed light on the dynamic tuning of small-scale thermal transport and light manipulation.
It is shown that thermally excited plasmon-polariton modes can strongly mediate, enhance and emph{tune} the near-field radiation transfer between two closely separated graphene sheets. The dependence of near-field heat exchange on doping and electron
relaxation time is analyzed in the near infra-red within the framework of fluctuational electrodynamics. The dominant contribution to heat transfer can be controlled to arise from either interband or intraband processes. We predict maximum transfer at low doping and for plasmons in two graphene sheets in resonance, with orders-of-magnitude enhancement (e.g. $10^2$ to $10^3$ for separations between $0.1mu m$ to $10nm$) over the Stefan-Boltzmann law, known as the far field limit. Strong, tunable, near-field transfer offers the promise of an externally controllable thermal switch as well as a novel hybrid graphene-graphene thermoelectric/thermophotovoltaic energy conversion platform.
Nitrogen-Vacancy centers in diamond possess an electronic spin resonance that strongly depends on temperature, which makes them efficient temperature sensor with a sensitivity down to a few mK/$sqrt{rm Hz}$. However, the high thermal conductivity of
the host diamond may strongly damp any temperature variations, leading to invasive measurements when probing local temperature distributions. In view of determining possible and optimal configurations for diamond-based wide-field thermal imaging, we here investigate, both experimentally and numerically, the effect of the presence of diamond on microscale temperature distributions. Three geometrical configurations are studied: a bulk diamond substrate, a thin diamond layer bonded on quartz and diamond nanoparticles dispersed on quartz. We show that the use of bulk diamond substrates for thermal imaging is highly invasive, in the sense that it prevents any substantial temperature increase. Conversely, thin diamond layers partly solve this issue and could provide a possible alternative for microscale thermal imaging. Dispersions of diamond nanoparticles throughout the sample appear as the most relevant approach as they do not affect the temperature distribution, although NV centers in nanodiamonds yield lower temperature sensitivities compared to bulk diamond.
Due to the large anomalous Hall effect, magnetic Weyl semimetals can support nonreciprocal surface plasmon polariton modes in the absence of an external magnetic field. This implies that magnetic Weyl semimetals can find novel application in (thermal
) photonics. In this work, we consider the near-field radiative heat transfer between two magnetic Weyl semimetal slabs and show that the heat transfer can be controlled with a relative rotation of the parallel slabs. Thanks to the intrinsic nonreciprocity of the surface modes, this so-called twisting method does not require surface structuring like periodic gratings. The twist-induced control of heat transfer is due to the mismatch of the surface modes from the two slabs with a relative rotation.
