High-Performance, Polarization-Independent Nonreciprocal Thermal Emitters
Analysis
Key Takeaways
- •Proposes a novel approach for designing high-performance, polarization-independent nonreciprocal thermal emitters.
- •Utilizes pattern-free multilayer heterostructures of magneto-optical and magnetic Weyl semimetal materials.
- •Employs Pareto optimization to enhance nonreciprocal thermal emission.
- •Addresses limitations of existing metamaterial-based solutions.
“The findings show that omnidirectional polarization-independent nonreciprocity can be achieved utilizing multilayer structures with different magnetization directions that do not follow simple vector summation.”
