We design a class of spatially inhomogeneous heat spreaders in the context of steady-state thermal conduction leading to spatially uniform thermal fields across a large convective surface. Each spreader has a funnel-shaped design, either in the form of a trapezoidal prism or truncated cone, and is forced by a thermal source at its base. We employ transformation-based techniques, commonly used to study metamaterials, to determine the require thermal conductivity for the spreaders. The obtained materials, although strongly anisotropic and inhomogeneous, can be accurately approximated by assembling isotropic, homogeneous layers, rendering them realisable. An alternative approach is then considered for the conical and trapezoidal spreaders by dividing them into two or three isotropic, homogeneous components respectively. We refer to these simple configurations as neutral layers. All designs are validated numerically. Such novel designs pave the way for future materials that can manipulate and control the flow of heat, helping to solve traditional heat transfer problems such as controlling the temperature of an object and energy harvesting.

Graphene was recently proposed as a material for heat removal owing to its extremely high thermal conductivity. We simulated heat propagation in silicon-on-insulator circuits with and without graphene lateral heat spreaders. Numerical solutions of th
e heat propagation equations were obtained using the finite element method. The analysis was focused on the prototype silicon-on-insulator circuits with the metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors. It was found that the incorporation of graphene or few-layer graphene layers with proper heat sinks can substantially lower the temperature of the localized hot spots. The maximum temperature in the transistor channels was studied as function of graphenes thermal conductivity and the thickness of the few-layer-graphene. The developed model and obtained results are important for the design of graphene heat spreaders and interconnects.
Non-Fourier heat conduction models assume wave-like behavior does exist in the heat conduction process. Based on this wave-like behavior, thermal conduction controlled in a one-dimensional periodical structure, named thermal wave crystal, has been de
monstrated through both theoretical analysis and numerical simulation based on the Cattaneo-Vernotte (CV) heat-conduction model. The transfer matrix method and Bloch analysis have been applied to calculate the band structure of thermal wave propagating in thermal wave crystals. And the temperature responses are obtained by using the FDTD method, which is also used to verify the correctness of the band structure. The results show that band gaps do exist due to the Bragg scattering. Then, a calculation method to predict the mid-gap frequency of band gaps for the thermal wave crystal has been introduced in this Letter. And key parameters determining the band gaps have been discussed. This study shows the potential applications of this novel mechanism, such as thermal imagining, thermal diodes and thermal waveguides.
We analyze the heat transfer between two nanoparticles separated by a distance lying in the near-field domain in which energy interchange is due to Coulomb interactions. The thermal conductance is computed by assuming that the particles have charge d
istributions characterized by fluctuating multipole moments in equilibrium with heat baths at two different temperatures. This quantity follows from the fluctuation-dissipation theorem (FDT) for the fluctuations of the multipolar moments. We compare the behavior of the conductance as a function of the distance between the particles with the result obtained by means of molecular dynamics simulations. The formalism proposed enables us to provide a comprehensive explanation of the marked growth of the conductance when decreasing the distance between the nanoparticles.
We report a new approach to the thermal conductivity manipulation -- substrate coupling. Generally, the phonon scattering with substrates can decrease the thermal conductivity, as observed in recent experiments. However, we find that at certain regio
ns, the coupling to substrates can increase the thermal conductivity due to a reduction of anharmonic phonon scattering induced by shift of the phonon band to the low wave vector. In this way, the thermal conductivity can be efficiently manipulated via coupling to different substrates, without changing or destroying the material structures. This idea is demonstrated by calculating the thermal conductivity of modified double-walled carbon nanotubes and also by the ice nanotubes coupled within carbon nanotubes.
We review spacetime dynamics in the presence of large-scale electromagnetic fields and then consider the effects of the magnetic component on perturbations to a spatially homogeneous and isotropic universe. Using covariant techniques, we refine and e
xtend earlier work and provide the magnetohydrodynamic equations that describe inhomogeneous magnetic cosmologies in full general relativity. Specialising this system to perturbed Friedmann-Robertson-Walker models, we examine the effects of the field on the expansion dynamics and on the growth of density inhomogeneities, including non-adiabatic modes. We look at scalar perturbations and obtain analytic solutions for their linear evolution in the radiation, dust and inflationary eras. In the dust case we also calculate the magnetic analogue of the Jeans length. We then consider the evolution of vector perturbations and find that the magnetic presence generally reduces the decay rate of these distortions. Finally, we examine the implications of magnetic fields for the evolution of cosmological gravitational waves.
