Physical Review B - Condensed Matter and Materials Physics 81 (10) : -.

We find that there is ballistic thermal rectification in asymmetric three-terminal structures because of the incoherent phonon scattering from the control terminal. With spin-phonon interaction, we also find the ballistic thermal rectification even in symmetric three-terminal paramagnetic structures. © 2010 The American Physical Society. | Source Title: | Physical Review B - Condensed Matter and Materials Physics | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/95845 | ISSN: | 10980121 | DOI: | 10.1103/PhysRevB.81.100301 |
