New 1-way heat diode could let batteries survive extreme conditions
Engineers have long known how to steer electricity in one direction, but heat has been far harder to tame. Now a new one-way thermal “diode” promises to give designers similar control over heat flow, ...
Scientists have reviewed the superconducting diode effect, a quantum effect enabling dissipationless supercurrent to flow in only one direction. The SDE provides new functionalities for ...
A model of a quantum thermal diode based on a qubit and qutrit. The asymmetric design allows this system to behave as a thermal diode when connected between two thermal baths. Credit: APL Quantum ...
