Quantum multifractality in thermal conduction across random interfaces
Taishan Zhu, Giuseppe Romano, Lina Yang +2
Self-affine morphology of random interfaces governs their functionalities across tribological, geological, (opto-)electrical and biological applications. However, the knowledge of…

Mitigating the Effect of Nanoscale Porosity on Thermoelectric Power Factor of Si
S. Aria Hosseini, Giuseppe Romano, P. Alex Greaney
The addition of porosity to thermoelectric materials can significantly increase the figure of merit, ZT, by reducing the thermal conductivity. Unfortunately, porosity is also detri…

Phonon Transport in Patterned Two-Dimensional Materials from First Principles
Giuseppe Romano
Phonon size effects induce ballistic transport in nanomaterials, challenging Fourier's law. Nondiffusive heat transport is captured by the Peierls-Boltzmann transport equation (BTE…
