Thermal conductance and thermopower of an individual single-wall carbon nanotube.

TLDR
It is observed that the thermal conductance of a 2.76-microm-long individual suspended single-wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) was very close to the calculated ballistic thermal conductances of a 1-nm-diameter SWCNT without showing signatures of phonon-phonon Umklapp scattering for temperatures between 110 and 300 K.
Abstract
We have observed experimentally that the thermal conductance of a 2.76-μm-long individual suspended single-wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) was very close to the calculated ballistic thermal conductance of a 1-nm-diameter SWCNT without showing signatures of phonon−phonon Umklapp scattering for temperatures between 110 and 300 K. Although the observed thermopower of the SWCNT can be attributed to a linear diffusion contribution and a constant phonon drag effect, there could be an additional contact effect.

Evaluation of thermal conductivity of single carbon nanotube in liquid and air using photofabricated fluorescence microsensors

TL;DR: In this article, a single carbon nanotube (CNT) is fixed to the sensors during photofabrication and measured thermal conductivity of the fixed CNT is evaluated by the temperature difference between the both ends of CNT, heat quantity of input to the CNT.

Unusually High Thermal Conductivity of Carbon Nanotubes

TL;DR: An unusually high value, lambda approximately 6600 W/m K, is suggested for an isolated (10,10) nanotube at room temperature, comparable to the thermal conductivity of a hypothetical isolated graphene monolayer or diamond.

Extreme oxygen sensitivity of electronic properties of carbon nanotubes

TL;DR: The results, although demonstrating that nanotubes could find use as sensitive chemical gas sensors, likewise indicate that many supposedly intrinsic properties measured on as-prepared nanotube may be severely compromised by extrinsic air exposure effects.
