Large penetration depth of near-field heat flux in hyperbolic media

We compare super-Planckian thermal radiation between phonon-polaritonic media and hyperbolic metamaterials. In particular, we determine the penetration depth of thermal photons inside the absorbing medium for three different structures: two semi-infinite phonon-polaritonic media supporting surface modes, two multilayer hyperbolic metamaterials and two nanowire hyperbolic metamaterials. We show that for hyperbolic modes the penetration depth can be orders of magnitude larger than for surface modes suggesting that hyperbolic materials are much more preferable for near-field thermophotovoltaic applications than pure phonon-polaritonic materials.
