TLDR
In this paper, the thermal conductivities of mixed III-V compounds: indium arsenide-phosphide, gallium-indium arsenides and gallium antimonides are presented.
Abstract
The thermal conductivities as a function of temperature for silicon, germanium, gallium arsenide, indium phosphide, indium arsenide, indium antimonide, gallium phosphide, aluminum antimonide and gallium antimonide are presented. Also included are the thermal conductivities of the mixed III–V compounds: indium arsenide-phosphide, gallium-indium arsenide and gallium arsenide-phosphide. These data are derived from the publications listed in the bibliography and represent the author's selection of the “most probable” values. A brief phenomenological discussion of the mechanisms involved in thermal conduction is presented.

Thermal effects in p-channel MOSFETs at low temperatures

TL;DR: In this paper, thermal effects due to device self-heating in p-channel enhancement MOSFETs operated at cryogenic temperatures are discussed, where device heating is observed through drain-current transients and the drain current is used to monitor heating.

On the Planckian bound for heat diffusion in insulators.

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the Planckian bound is due to a quantum mechanical bound on the sound velocity of the phonon dynamics at high temperatures, and that the velocity bound therefore implies the Planckerian bound.

Temperature transients in IMPATT diodes

TL;DR: In this paper, a model for computing the thermal transient response of a diamond-heat-sinked IMPATT diode has been formulated as a means for accurately predicting the degree of heating or cooling of the junction when the diode is pulsed into or out of avalanche.

Thermal Conductivity: XIV, Conductivity of Multicomponent Systems

TL;DR: In this article, the thermal conductivity of a number of multi-component systems has been determined as a function of composition and temperature, and it was shown that a second component in solid solution markedly lowers thermal conductivities.

Thermal Conductivity and Thermoelectric Power of Germanium‐Silicon Alloys

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of germanium-silicon alloys were used for thermoelectric power measurement and it was shown that solid-solution alloying can significantly increase the figure of merit of the thermodynamic properties of these materials.
