Interface heat transfer between crossing carbon nanotubes, and the thermal conductivity of nanotube pellets
Y. Chalopin, S. Volz, N. Mingo
We theoretically compute the interface thermal resistance between crossing single walled carbon nanotubes of various chiralities, using an atomistic Green's function approach with…
Nanoscale heat transfer at contact between a hot tip and a substrate
Stéphane Lefèvre, Sebastian Volz, Pierre-Olivier Chapuis
Hot tips are used either for characterizing nanostructures by using scanning thermal microscopes or for local heating to assist data writing. The tip-sample thermal interaction inv…
Heat transfer between a nano-tip and a surface
Pierre-Olivier Chapuis, Jean-Jacques Greffet, Karl Joulain +1
We study quasi-ballistic heat transfer through air between a hot nanometer-scale tip and a sample. The hot tip/surface configuration is widely used to perform nonintrusive confined…
Polymer nanoparticles to decrease thermal conductivity of phase change materials
Po Chapuis, Sourabh Kumar Saha, S. Volz
Microparticles including paraffin are currently used for textiles coating in order to deaden thermal shocks. We will show that polymer nanoparticles embedded in those microsized ca…
Quantitative 3w-Scanning Thermal Microscopy: Modelling the AC/DC coupling and the sample heat conduction
P. -O. Chapuis, S. Kumar Saha, S. Volz
A way to increase the Scanning Thermal Microscope (SThM) sensitivity in the harmonic 3w mode is to heat the probe with an AC current sufficiently high to generate a coupling betwee…
