In this work, we present a new formula for the near-field thermal radiative transfer between two spheres. The formula is identical for coated or uncoated spheres and captures the effect of the coatings in the effective Mie reflection coefficients of the spheres. We also numerically demonstrate that silica coated silver spheres transition from silver-like conductance in the far-field to surface phonon polariton dominated silica-like behavior in the extreme near-field.

A spectrally selective thermally emitting device is proposed which takes advantage of near-field surface phonon polariton modes. Surface phonon polariton modes are usually restricted to the emitter surface and do not participate in energy exchange. In this work, the possibility of obtaining desirable spectral properties by using a thin-film surface active material, layered between dielectrics, is explored. This same multilayered structure is proposed to couple the surface modes into radiative modes that can participate in energy transport. This multilayer device is studied in this paper by developing the surface phonon mode dispersion relation to identify the spectral location of the surface modes. The fluctuation-dissipation theorem and impedance boundary condition is used to theoretically describe the near-field spectral radiative properties of the multilayer geometry. The near-field radiative properties show near monochromatic spectral characteristics due to the domination of surface phonon polariton modes.

We studied the electromagnetic local density of state (EM-LDOS) near the surface of a one-dimensional multilayer structure (1DMS) alternately stacked by SiC and Si. EM-LDOS of a semi-infinite bulk appears two intrinsic peaks due to the resonance of surface phonon-polariton (SPhP) in SiC. In contrast with that of SiC bulk, SPhP can exist at the interface of SiC and Si for the 1DMS. The SPhPs from different interfaces can couple together, which can lead to a significant modulation of EM-LDOS. When the component widths of 1DMS are large, the spectrum of EM-LDOS exhibits oscillation behavior in the frequency regime larger than the resonance frequency of SPhP. While the component widths are small, due to the strong coupling of SPhPs, another peak appears in the EM-LDOS spectrum besides the two intrinsic ones. And the position of the new peak move toward high frequency when the width ratio of SiC and Si increases. The influences of distance from the surfaces and period of 1DMS on EM-LDOS have also been studied in detail. The results are helpful in studying the near-field radiative heat transfer and spontaneous emission.
