Journal ArticleDOI
Interfacial heat flow in carbon nanotube suspensions
Scott T. Huxtable,David G. Cahill,Sergei Shenogin,Liping Xue,Rahmi Ozisik,Paul W. Barone,Monica L. Usrey,Michael S. Strano,Giles P. Siddons,Moonsub Shim,Pawel Keblinski +10 more
TL;DR: These findings indicate that heat transport in a nanotube composite material will be limited by the exceptionally small interface thermal conductance and that the thermal conductivity of the composite will be much lower than the value estimated from the intrinsic thermal conductivities of the nanotubes and their volume fraction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal conductivity of Si/SiGe and SiGe/SiGe superlattices
Scott T. Huxtable,Alexis R. Abramson,Chang Lin Tien,Arun Majumdar,Chris LaBounty,Xiaofeng Fan,Gehong Zeng,John E. Bowers,Ali Shakouri,Edward T. Croke +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the crossplane thermal conductivity of four Si/Si0.7Ge0.3 superlattices and three Si0.16/Si 0.76Ge0, 0.84Ge 0.24 samples, with periods ranging from 45 to 300 and from 100 to 200 A, respectively, were measured over a temperature range of 50 to 320 K.
Journal ArticleDOI
SiGeC/Si superlattice microcoolers
Xiaofeng Fan,Gehong Zeng,Chris LaBounty,John E. Bowers,Edward T. Croke,Channing C. Ahn,Scott T. Huxtable,Arun Majumdar,Ali Shakouri +8 more
TL;DR: SiGeC/Si superlattice microcoolers with dimensions as small as 40×40 µm^2 were fabricated and characterized in this article, where they were grown on Si substrates by molecular beam epitaxy and thermal conductivity was measured by the 3omega method.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fabrication and characterization of a nanowire/polymer-based nanocomposite for a prototype thermoelectric device
Alexis R. Abramson,Woochul Kim,Scott T. Huxtable,Haoquan Yan,Yiying Wu,A. Majumdar,C.L. Tien,Peidong Yang +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the design, fabrication and testing of a novel thermoelectric device comprised of arrays of silicon nanowires embedded in a polymer matrix was discussed, where parylene, a low thermal conductivity and extremely conformal polymer, was embedded within the arrays.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal conductivity imaging at micrometre- scale resolution for combinatorial studies of materials
TL;DR: Here it is shown how time-domain thermoreflectance can be used to image the thermal conductivity of the cross-section of a Nb–Ti–Cr–Si diffusion multiple, and thereby demonstrate rapid and quantitative measurements of thermal transport properties for combinatorial studies of materials.
