The proposed research program aims to elucidate the physics of the “Heat Trap” effect – which was discovered in my laboratory – and establish it as a foundational technology for multiple promising applications in renewable energy conversion and electronics. The remarkable feature of this phenomenon is that heat remains very strongly localized in certain nanostructured conductors, enabling new paradigms for creating powerful new thermionic and thermoelectric (T/T) devices.
