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…
