Ultralow thermal conductivity of single crystalline porous silicon nanowires
Yunshan Zhao, Lina Yang, Lingyu Kong +10
Porous materials provide a large surface to volume ratio, thereby providing a knob to alter fundamental properties in unprecedented ways. In thermal transport, porous nanomaterials…

Long-wavelength deformations and vibrational modes in empty and liquid-filled microtubules and nanotubes: A theoretical study
Dan Liu, Arthur G. Every, David Tomanek
We propose a continuum model to predict long-wavelength vibrational modes of empty and liquid-filled tubules that are very hard to reproduce using the conventional force-constant m…
