Anisotropic thermal transport in bulk hexagonal boron nitride
Puqing Jiang, Xin Qian, Ronggui Yang +1
Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) has received great interest in recent years as a wide bandgap analog of graphene-derived systems. However, the thermal transport properties of h-BN,…
Interfacial thermal conductance across metal-insulator/semiconductor interfaces due to surface states
Tingyu Lu, Jun Zhou, Tsuneyoshi Nakayama +2
We point out that the effective channel for the interfacial thermal conductance, the inverse of Kapitza resistance, of metal-insulator/semiconductor interfaces is governed by the e…
Steady State and Modulated Heat Conduction in Layered Systems Predicted by the Phonon Boltzmann Transport Equation
Jose Ordonez-Miranda, Ronggui Yang, Sebastian Volz +1
Based on the phonon Boltzmann transport equation under the relaxation time approximation, analytical expressions for the temperature profiles of both steady state and modulated hea…
A new regime of nanoscale thermal transport: collective diffusion counteracts dissipation inefficiency
Kathleen M. Hoogeboom-Pot, Jorge N. Hernandez-Charpak, Erik H. Anderson +5
Understanding thermal transport from nanoscale heat sources is important for a fundamental description of energy flow in materials, as well as for many technological applications i…
Inhomogeneous Thermal Conductivity Enhances Thermoelectric Cooling
Tingyu Lu, Jun Zhou, Nianbei Li +2
We theoretically investigate the enhancement of thermoelectric cooling performance in thermoelectric devices made of materials with inhomogeneous thermal conductivity, beyond the u…
