EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Heat-flux control and solid-state cooling by regulating chemical potential of photons in near-field electromagnetic heat transfer

Kaifeng Chen, Parthiban Santhanam, Sunil Sandhu, Linxiao Zhu, and Shanhui Fan

Phys. Rev. B 91, 134301 (2015) - Published 13 April, 2015

Near-field electromagnetic heat transfer is studied in a theoretical semiconductor heterojunction system in the presence of a non-zero chemical potential (via a bias voltage). Changing the potential enables electronic control of near-field heat transfer and suggests a novel and very exciting new possibility for achieving solid-state cooling, a holy grail in thermal science.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Classification and description of bosonic symmetry protected topological phases with semiclassical nonlinear sigma models

Zhen Bi, Alex Rasmussen, Kevin Slagle, and Cenke Xu

Phys. Rev. B 91, 134404 (2015) - Published 6 April, 2015

Using semiclassical nonlinear sigma model techniques the authors classify a broad class of bosonic symmetry protected topological phases. This construction works in all dimensions.
