Journal ArticleDOI
Colloquium : Phononics: Manipulating heat flow with electronic analogs and beyond
TL;DR: In this article, a toolkit of familiar electronic analogs for use of phononics is put forward, i.e., phononic devices are described which act as thermal diodes, thermal transistors, thermal logic gates, and thermal memories.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal diode: rectification of heat flux.
TL;DR: By coupling two nonlinear one dimensional lattices, this work provides numerical and analytical evidence for the underlying mechanism which allows heat flux in one direction while the system acts like an insulator when the temperature gradient is reversed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Length-dependent thermal conductivity in suspended single-layer graphene.
Xiangfan Xu,Luiz Felipe C. Pereira,Yu Wang,Jing Wu,Kaiwen Zhang,Xiangming Zhao,Sukang Bae,Cong Tinh Bui,Rongguo Xie,John T. L. Thong,Byung Hee Hong,Kian Ping Loh,Davide Donadio,Baowen Li,Barbaros Özyilmaz +14 more
TL;DR: Interestingly and in contrast to bulk materials, at 300 K, thermal conductivity keeps increasing and remains logarithmically divergent with sample length even for sample lengths much larger than the average phonon mean free path, which provides fundamental understanding of thermal transport in two-dimensional materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal Logic Gates: Computation with Phonons
TL;DR: This work builds up thermal logic gates that can perform similar operations as their electronic counterparts, and demonstrates that phonons, the heat carriers, can also be used to carry information and processed accordingly.
Journal ArticleDOI
Negative differential thermal resistance and thermal transistor
Baowen Li,Lei Wang,Giulio Casati +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a three-terminal thermal transistor with the important feature that the current through the two terminals can be controlled by small changes in the temperature or in the current passing through the third terminal.
