Surface-mode-assisted amplification of radiative heat transfer between nanoparticles

open access: yes, 2018
We show that the radiative heat flux between two nanoparticles can be significantly amplified when they are placed in proximity of a planar substrate supporting a surface resonance. The amplification factor goes beyond two orders of magnitude in the case
