Nanotube heat conductors under tensile strain: Reducing the three-phonon scattering strength of acoustic phonons
Daniel Bruns, Alireza Nojeh, A. Srikantha Phani +1
Acoustic phonons play a special role in lattice heat transport, and confining these low-energy modes in low-dimensional materials may enable nontrivial transport phenomena. By appl…

Heat transport in carbon nanotubes: Length dependence of phononic conductivity from the Boltzmann transport equation and molecular dynamics
Daniel Bruns, Alireza Nojeh, A. Srikantha Phani +1
In this article, we address lattice heat transport in single-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) by a quantum mechanical calculation of three-phonon scattering rates in the framework of…

Tuning morphology and thermal transport of asymmetric smart polymer blends by macromolecular engineering
Daniel Bruns, Tiago Espinosa de Oliveira, Joerg Rottler +1
A grand challenge in designing polymeric materials is to tune their properties by macromolecular engineering. In this context, one of the drawbacks that often limits broader applic…
