In most systems, thermal diffusion is intrinsically slow with respect to mechanical relaxation. We devise here a generic approach to accelerate the relaxation of the temperature field of a one-dimensional object, in order to beat the mechanical time scales. This approach is applied to a micrometer-sized silicon cantilever, locally heated by a...
