Size dependent thermoelectric properties of silicon nanowires
Lihong Shi, Donglai Yao, Gang Zhang +1
By using first-principles tight-binding electronic structure calculation and Boltzmann transport equation, we investigate the size dependence of thermoelectric properties of silico…

Carbon Nanocone: A Promising Thermal Rectifier
Nuo Yang, Gang Zhang, Baowen Li
With molecular dynamics simulations, we demonstrate very obvious thermal rectification in large temperature range from 200 to 400 K in nanocone. We also observe that the rectificat…

Thermal Rectification In Asymmetric Graphene Ribbons
Nuo Yang, Gang Zhang, Baowen Li
In this paper, heat flux in graphene nano ribbons has been studied by using molecular dynamics simulations. It is found that the heat flux runs preferentially along the direction o…
