Hierarchically nanostructured thermoelectric materials: Challenges and opportunities for improved power factors
Neophytos Neophytou, Vassilios Vargiamidis, Samuel Foster +9
The field of thermoelectric materials has undergone a revolutionary transformation over the last couple of decades as a result of the ability to nanostructure and synthesize myriad…
Effect of wave versus particle phonon nature in thermal transport through nanostructures
Dhritiman Chakraborty, Hossein Karamitaheri, Laura de Sousa Oliveira +1
Comprehensive understanding of thermal transport in nanostructured materials needs large scale simulations bridging length scales dictated by different physics related to the wave…
Thermal rectification optimization in nanoporous Si using Monte Carlo simulations
Dhritiman Chakraborty, Joshua Brooke, Nick C S Hulse +1
We investigate thermal rectification in nanoporous silicon using a semi-classical Monte Carlo (MC) simulation method. We consider geometrically asymmetric nanoporous structures, an…
Monte Carlo simulations for phonon transport in silicon nanomaterials
Dhritiman Chakraborty, Samuel Foster, Neophytos Neophytou
In nanostructures phonon transport behaviour is distinctly different to transport in bulk materials such that materials with ultra low thermal conductivities and enhanced thermoele…
Enhanced Phonon Boundary Scattering at High Temperatures in Hierarchically Disordered Nanostructures
Dhritiman Chakraborty, Laura de Sousa Oliveira, Neophytos Neophytou
Boundary scattering in hierarchically disordered nanomaterials is an effective way to reduce the thermal conductivity of thermoelectric materials and increase their performance. In…
Monte Carlo phonon transport simulations in hierarchically disordered silicon nanostructures
Dhritiman Chakraborty, Samuel Foster, Neophytos Neophytou
Hierarchical material nanostructuring is considered to be a very promising direction for high performance thermoelectric materials. In this work we investigate thermal transport in…
