Two-Dimensional Thermal Regulation Based on Non-Hermitian Skin Effect
-
Abstract
The non-Hermitian skin effect has been applied in multiple fields. However, there are relatively few models in the field of thermal diffusion that utilize the non-Hermitian skin effect for achieving thermal regulation. Here, we propose two non-Hermitian Su–Schrieffer–Heeger (SSH) models for thermal regulation: one capable of achieving edge states, and the other capable of achieving corner states within the thermal field. By analyzing the energy band structures and the generalized Brillouin zone, we predict the appearance of the non-Hermitian skin effect in these two models. Furthermore, we analyze the time-dependent evolution results and assess the robustness of the models. The results indicate that the localized thermal effects of the models align with our predictions. In a word, this work presents two models based on the non-Hermitian skin effect for regulating the thermal field, injecting vitality into the design of non-Hermitian thermal diffusion systems.
