文摘Due to its great potential applications in thermal management,heat control,and quantum information,phononics has gained increasing attentions since the first publication in Rev.Mod.Phys.841045(2012).Many theoretical and experimental progresses have been achieved in the past decade.In this paper,we first give a critical review of the progress in thermal diodes and transistors,especially in classical regime.Then,we give a brief introduction to the new developing research directions such as topological phononics and quantum phononics.In the third part,we discuss the potential applications.Last but not least,we point out the outlook and challenges ahead.
