ANN ARBOR, Michigan, Sept. 5 -- The University of Michigan issued the following news release:
As much as 100 times more heat than predicted by the standard radiation theory can flow between two nanoscale objects, even at bigger-than-nanoscale distances, researchers at the University of Michigan and the College of William and Mary have reported in the journal Nature.
The new results could have implications for better solar cells, materials that behave like one-way valves . . .
