Phase Stability of Hexagonal/cubic Boron Nitride Nanocomposites
Abhijit Biswas, Rui Xu, Joyce Christiansen-Salameh +21
Boron nitride (BN) is an exceptional material and among its polymorphs, two-dimensional (2D) hexagonal and three-dimensional (3D) cubic BN (h-BN and c-BN) phases are most common. T…
Non-linear optics at twist interfaces in h-BN/SiC heterostructures
Abhijit Biswas, Rui Xu, Gustavo A. Alvarez +24
Understanding the emergent electronic structure in twisted atomically thin layers has led to the exciting field of twistronics. However, practical applications of such systems are…
Thermal Transport in Polymers: A Review
Xingfei Wei, Zhi Wang, Zhiting Tian +1
In this article, we review thermal transport in polymers with different morphologies from aligned fibers to bulk amorphous states. We survey early and recent efforts in engineering…
First-Principles Simulation of Electron Mean-Free-Path Spectra and Thermoelectric Properties in Silicon
Bo Qiu, Zhiting Tian, Ajit Vallabhaneni +5
The mean-free-paths (MFPs) of energy carriers are of critical importance to the nano-engineering of better thermoelectric materials. Despite significant progress in the first-princ…
Thermal Interface Conductance between Aluminum and Silicon by Molecular Dynamics Simulations
Nuo Yang, Tengfei Luo, Keivan Esfarjani +6
The thermal interface conductance between Al and Si was simulated by a non-equilibrium molecular dynamics method. In the simulations, the coupling between electrons and phonons in…
A Comprehensive Review of Heat Transfer in Thermoelectric Materials and Devices
Zhiting Tian, Sangyeop Lee, Gang Chen
Solid-state thermoelectric devices are currently used in applications ranging from thermocouple sensors to power generators in satellites, to portable air-conditioners and refriger…
