Design of thermal diodes using asymmetric thermal deformation of a Kirigami structure
Driving heat flow in one direction and blocking in the other direction can provide a potential advantage in thermal engineering – e.g., thermal management and energy harvesting. Pushing the idea toward a passive operation of the thermal diode can save more thermal energy, yet extremely challenging....
