Résumé
Controlling and manipulating radiative heat transfer remains a pivotal challenge in both scientific inquiry and technological advancement, traditionally tackled through the precise geometric design of metastructures. However, geometrical optimization cannot break the inherent shackles of local modes within individual meta-atoms, which hinders sustained progress in radiative heat transfer. Here, we propose a comprehensive strategy based on interatomic displacement to achieve superior heat transfer performance while obviating the need for increasingly complex structural designs. This meta-atomic displacement strategy enables a shift from quasi-isolated localized resonances to extended nonlocal resonant modes induced by strong interactions among neighboring meta-atoms, resulting in a radiative heat conductance that surpasses other previously reported geometrical structures. Furthermore, this meta-atomic displacement strategy can be seamlessly applied to various metastructures, offering significant implications for advancing thermal science and next-generation energy devices.
