Various unusual behaviors of artificial materials are governed by their topological properties, among which the edge state at the boundary of a photonic or phononic lattice has been captivated as a popular notion. However, this remarkable bulk-boundary correspondence and the related phenomena are missing in thermal materials. One reason is that heat diffusion is described in a non-Hermitian framework because of its dissipative nature. The other is that the relevant temperature field is mostly composed of modes that extend over wide ranges, making it difficult to be rendered within the tight-binding theory as commonly employed in wave physics. Here, we overcome the above challenges and perform systematic studies on heat diffusion in thermal lattices. Based on a continuum model, we introduce a state vector to link the Zak phase with the existence of the edge state, and thereby analytically prove the thermal bulk-boundary correspondence. We experimentally demonstrate the predicted edge states with a topologically protected and localized heat dissipation capacity. Our finding sets up a solid foundation to explore the topology in novel heat transfer manipulations.

A normal-diffusion theory for heat transfer in many-body systems via carriers of thermal photons is developed. The thermal conductivity tensor is rigorously derived from fluctuational electrodynamics as a coefficient of diffusion term for the first t ime. In addition, a convection-like heat transfer behavior is revealed in systems of asymmetric distribution of particles, indicating violation of Fouriers law for such system. Considering the central role of thermal conductivity in heat transfer, this work paves a way for understanding, analysis and manipulation of heat transfer in nanoparticle system via thermal photons with many-body interactions.
This work combines the principles of the heat spreader method and imaging capability of the thermoreflectance measurements to measure the in-plane thermal conductivity of thin-films without the requirement of film suspension or multiple thermometer d eposition. We refer to this hybrid technique as heat diffusion imaging. The thermoreflectance imaging system provides a temperature distribution map across the film surface. The in-plane thermal conductivity can be extracted from the temperature decay profile. By coupling the system with a cryostat, we were able to conduct measurements from 40 K to 400 K. Silicon thin film samples with and without periodic holes were measured and compared with in-plane time-domain thermoreflectance (TDTR) measurement and literature data as validation for heat diffusion imaging.
We report on experimental investigation of thermal contact resistance of the noncuring graphene thermal interface materials with the surfaces characterized by different degree of roughness. It is found that the thermal contact resistance depends on t he graphene loading non-monotonically, achieving its minimum at the loading fraction of ~15 wt.%. Increasing the surface roughness by ~1 micrometer results in approximately the factor of x2 increase in the thermal contact resistance for this graphene loading. The obtained dependences of the thermal conductivity, thermal contact resistance, and the total thermal resistance of the thermal interface material layer on the graphene loading and surface roughness indicate the need for optimization of the loading fraction for specific materials and roughness of the connecting surfaces. Our results are important for developing graphene technologies for thermal management of high-power-density electronics.
Topological insulating phases are usually found in periodic lattices stemming from collective resonant effects, and it may thus be expected that similar features may be prohibited in thermal diffusion, given its purely dissipative and largely incoher ent nature. We report the diffusion-based topological states supported by spatiotemporally-modulated advections stacked over a fluidic surface, thereby imitating a periodic propagating potential in effective thermal lattices. We observe edge and bulk states within purely nontrivial and trivial lattices, respectively. At interfaces between these two types of lattices, the diffusive system exhibits interface states, manifesting inhomogeneous thermal properties on the fluidic surface. Our findings establish a framework for topological diffusion and thermal edge/bulk states, and it may empower a distinct mechanism for flexible manipulation of robust heat and mass transfer.
This study explores the potentialities of Scanning Thermal Microscopy (SThM) technique as a tool for measuring thermal transporting properties of carbon-derived materials issued from thermal conversion of organic polymers, such as the most commonly k nown polyimide (PI), Kapton. For quantitative measurements, the Null Point SThM (NP-SThM) technique is used in order to avoid unwanted effects as the parasitic heat flows through the air and the probe cantilever. Kapton HN films were pyrolysed in an inert atmosphere at temperatures up to 1200{deg}C to produce carbon-based residues with varying degree of conversion to free sp2 disordered carbon. The thermal conductivity of carbon materials ranges from 0.2 to 2 Wm-1K-1 depending on the temperature of the carbonization process (varied between 500{deg}C and 1200{deg}C). In order to validate the applicability of NP-SThM approach to these materials, the results were compared to those obtained with the three more traditional techniques, namely photo-thermal radiometry, flash laser analysis and micro-Raman thermometry. It was found that NP SThM data are in excellent agreement with previous work using more traditional techniques. We used the NP-SThM technique to differentiate structural heterogeneities or imperfections at the surface of the pyrolysed Kapton on the basis of measured local thermal conductivity.
