Welcome!
I am Dr. Jose Ordonez-Miranda, a researcher of the thermal science group at the Institute Pprime of CNRS. Our lab's research focus is on understanding and engineering nanoscale heat transport for applications in the energy field as waste heat recovery and information transmission by thermal photons and polaritons. We use a variety of theoretical and experimental techniques to investigate nanoscale transport processes in nanomaterials, phase-change materials and particulate composites. I invite you to look at the website for more details about our work and facilities.
Temperature jumps in a thermal transistor
Our Latest Research
These videos show the jumps of the heat fluxes Ï•1 (collector-base) and Ï•2 (base-emitter), induced by the sudden temperature changes shown in the upper animated figure for the thermal transistor. These jumps occur at the same applied heat flux Ï•3 as those of the base temperature, such that the jumps down of Ï•1 and Ï•2 during the heating are exactly compensated by their corresponding jumps up for the cooling, as established by the principle of energy conservation (Ï•3 = Ï•2 - Ï•1). These jumps allow the optimization of the transistor effect, through the amplification factor α = ∂Ï•1/∂Ï•3.
