contents We demonstrate that the near-field thermal radiation between subwavelength SiC nanowires with square cross sections is dominated by multiple corner and edge resonances rather than the single surface-phonon-polariton channel of planar surfaces. Fluctuational electrodynamics simulations reveal that these resonances lie within the SiC Reststrahlen band, redshift for thinner nanowires, and yield a four-fold enhancement of thermal conductance. This maximum enhancement occurs when the separation gap nearly matches the nanowire thickness, balancing dimensional confinement and interwire coupling. These findings establish square nanowires as a versatile platform for geometrycontrolled near-field heat transfer in nanoscale heat management and energy conversion.
