Thermal rectification in multilayer phase change material structures for energy storage applications

Summary: Solid-state thermal control devices that present an asymmetric heat flow depending on thermal bias directionality, referred to as thermal diodes, have recently received increased attention for energy management. The use of materials that can change phase is a common approach to design therm...
