Macroscopic negative differential thermal resistance in the overlapping graphene homojunction structure
As one of the most potential ways to manipulate heat, thermal functional devices have achieved several breakthroughs in recent years, but are still limited to theoretical simulations. One of its theoretical bases is the existence of the negative differential thermal resistance (NDTR). However, most...

description | As one of the most potential ways to manipulate heat, thermal functional devices have achieved several breakthroughs in recent years, but are still limited to theoretical simulations. One of its theoretical bases is the existence of the negative differential thermal resistance (NDTR). However, most of the existing systems where the phenomenon of NDTR is found are atomic-level systems. In order to realize the macroscopic NDTR and provide effective theoretical guidance and support for the practical realization of thermal functional devices, we construct the overlapping graphene homojunction model, using the negative thermal expansion property of graphene to modify the overlapping area, and thus regulating the heat flow. The COMSOL-MATLAB co-simulation is used to perform calculations through negative feedback loops. It is found that the NDTR phenomenon exists under certain parameter conditions, which can provide new ideas and bring more opportunities for the experimental realization of nonlinear thermal functional devices. |
