Photon Thermal Hall Effect

Photon Thermal Hall Effect

A near-field thermal Hall effect (i.e., Righi-Leduc effect) in networks of magneto-optical particles placed in a constant magnetic field is predicted. This many-body effect is related to a symmetry breaking in the system induced by the magnetic field, which gives rise to preferential channels for th...

Zusammenfassung:A near-field thermal Hall effect (i.e., Righi-Leduc effect) in networks of magneto-optical particles placed in a constant magnetic field is predicted. This many-body effect is related to a symmetry breaking in the system induced by the magnetic field, which gives rise to preferential channels for the heat transport by near-field interaction thanks to the particle's anisotropy tuning.
