Quasiparticles-mediated thermal diode effect in Weyl Josephson junctions

We theoretically show quasiparticles-driven thermal diode effect (TDE) in an inversion symmetry-broken voyage et cie discount code Weyl superconductor (WSC)-Weyl semimetal (WSM)-WSC Josephson junction.A Zeeman field perpendicular to the WSM region of the thermally-biased Weyl Josephson junction (WJJ) induces an asymmetry between the forward and reverse thermal currents, which is responsible for the TDE.Most interestingly, we show that the sign and magnitude of the thermal diode rectification coefficient is highly tunable by the superconducting phase difference and external Zeeman field, and also strongly depends on the junction ps5 price new jersey length.The tunability of the rectification, particularly, the sign changing behavior associated with higher rectification enhances the potential of our WJJ thermal diode to use as functional switching components in thermal devices.
