Radiative bistability and thermal memory [PDF]

Phys. Rev. Lett. 113, 074301 (2014), 2014
We predict the existence of a thermal bistability in many-body systems out of thermal equilibrium which exchange heat by thermal radiation using insulator-metal transition (IMT) materials. We propose a writing-reading procedure and demonstrate the possibility to exploit the thermal bistability to make a volatile thermal memory.

Degradation of Epoxy–Particles Composites Exposed to UV and Gamma Radiation

Chemistry, 2023
In the design and fabrication of any structural system for space application, balance between mass, stiffness and strength is crucial. Structures in space environments are exposed to high radiation levels and thermal shock, due to the sun irradiance and ...

Near-field radiation assisted smart skin for spacecraft thermal control [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Thermal control is of critical importance for normal operation of spacecraft. Given thermal radiation is the only means of heat dissipation in space, an efficient thermal control approach for spacecraft is to coat the radiator with a tunable-emittance "skin" that can tune its heat dissipation according to various thermal conditions.
