A non-linear ablation device includes two opposing surfaces, which are associated with two overlying and separate compartments. A first compartment of the two overlying and separate compartments is configured to emit or resorb energy. A second compartment of the two overlying and separate compartments is configured to either resorb or emit energy to oppose a direction of energy transfer of the first compartment. Other embodiments of the non-linear ablation device are further disclosed.
