Analogies between optical propagation and heat diffusion: applications to microcavities, gratings and cloaks

Abstract: A new analogy between optical propagation and heat diffusion in heterogeneous anisotropic media has been proposed recently by three of the present authors. A detailed derivation of this unconventional correspondence is presented and developed. In time harmonic regime, all thermal parameters are related to optical ones in artificial metallic media, thus making possible to use numerical codes developed for optics. Then, the optical admittance formalism is extended to heat conduction in multilayered structures. T… Show more

“…In recent years, conformal mapping has been applied to the design of novel steering devices in optics, electrostatics, DC fields, and heat diffusion (e.g. [3,[12][13][14][15][16][17]). Although it is still hard to construct an omnidirectional device from the mapping [18], the material parameters of a conformal device could be isotropic for a wave incoming from a specific direction.…”
