波导隧道近场热能转换
Near-Field Thermal Energy Conversion by Tunneling to a Waveguide
摘要：
能源是一种至关重要的资源，因此需要不断努力改进现有技术，并寻找满足这一基本需求的新技术。热能的转换是从广泛的来源（例如化石燃料、太阳能、地热和核能）产生电能的主要方法。在所有情况下的共同需要是有效地提取所产生的电磁能和热能并将其转换成电的能力。当前的热能提取方法基于热机、热电和热光伏转换系统。在这份报告中，一种方法的基础上直接提取电磁能量的热近场通过隧道和随后的波导，提出。
英文摘要：
Energy is a vital resource and hence there is a continuous strive to improve upon existing technologies and to find new ones that address that basic need. The conversion of thermal energy is the primary method of generating electrical energy from a broad range of sources, for example fossil fuels, solar thermal, geothermal, and nuclear energy. A common need in all cases is the ability to efficiently extract the generated electromagnetic and thermal energy and to convert it to electricity. The current methods of thermal energy extraction are based on heat engines, thermoelectric and thermophotovoltaic conversion systems. In this report a method based on the direct extraction of Electromagnetic energy from the thermal near-field through tunneling and subsequent waveguiding, is presented.
