  16. Fourier’s law One can envision a chain of our composite quantum systems assembled between two baths. Problem: Fourier’s law breaks if coupling is strong (Y. Dubi, M. Di Ventra, PRE, 2009) Fourier’s law can be restored if one considers a chain of large but finite subsystems (nanoparticles) coupled to each other by our quantum mediators: Fornth nanoparticle:

  19. Conclusions • We considered heat transport between two heat baths mediated by a quantum particle using the generalized Langevin equation. Both the heat baths and mediator are described in the harmonic approximation and the Drude-Ullersma model is used to describe the baths. The expressions for the heat current and thermal conductance are valid for arbitrary coupling strength between the mediator and baths and arbitrary Debye cutoff frequency. • We analyze our results for different temperature regimes and different coupling strengths. The results are also applied to a model of a chain made of macroscopically large but finite subsystems described by the Drude-Ullersma model and coupled to each other through the quantum mediators. We find that Fourier’s law is restored even for a case of strong coupling. • Heat exchange across a sub-nanometer size gap between an STM nanotip and a substrate filled by the molecule was considered providing a possible explanation of anomalously large heat flux observed in the experiment.
