Thermal conductivity reduction due to phonon geometrical scattering in nano-engineered epitaxial germanium
Jessy Paterson, Sunanda Mitra, Yanqing Liu +7
Nano-engineering crystalline materials can be used to tailor their thermal properties. By adding new nanoscale phonon scattering centers and controlling their size, one can effecti…
Reduction of phonon mean free path: from low temperature physics to room temperature applications in thermoelectricity
Olivier Bourgeois, Dimitri Tainoff, Adib Tavakoli +5
It has been proposed for a long time now that the reduction of the thermal conductivity by reducing the phonon mean free path is one of the best way to improve the current performa…
Core-shell nanostructure in a Ge_0.9Mn_0.1 film from structural and magnetic measurements
P. Dalmas de Reotier, E. Prestat, P. Bayle-Guillemaud +8
We have characterized a film of Ge_0.9Mn_0.1 forming self-organized nanocolumns perpendicular to the Ge substrate with high resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy com…
