Non-contact heat transfer between metallic surfaces — •Paul Philip Schmidt and Carsten Henkel — Universität Potsdam, Institut für Physik und Astronomie

The heat transfer at distances beyond contact can be described by fluctuating electrodynamics developed by Rytov [1]. Recent experiments provide deviations from the theoretical predictions. In the measurements, a flat gold surface was approached by a gold-coated probe tip, the distance between the two being less than 10nm [2,3]. In this work we model the measured data in a phenomenological way. The basic assumption is that at a critical distance, the heat flow between flat surface elements saturates, proportional to the number of transport channels. When combined with the proximity force (Deryagin) approximation, this “snap-in model” is in good agreement with the experimental data [4].
