摘要
We demonstrate the hot phonon effect on thermal radiation in the terahertz and far-infrared regime. A pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor is used for efficiently exciting hot phonons. Boosting the hot phonon population can enhance the efficiency of thermal radiation. The transistor can yield at least a radiation power of 13 mu W and a power conversion efficiency higher than a resistor by more than 20%. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.
