Directing Interfacial Heat Flow via Hyperbolic Phonon Polaritons in Hexagonal Boron Nitride
Saman ZareUniversity of Virginia, Charlottesville, Virginia, USA _______________________________________ With the continued miniaturization of electronic devices to the nanoscale, heat generation approaches quantum limits, leading to significant increases in scattering and subsequent reductions in conventional thermal conduction. In parallel, ongoing advancements in nanoscale thermal engineering have identified radiative mechanisms as potential pathways to precisely tune both…
