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.

Characterization and Modeling of an Electro-thermal

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the analysis of a Quadratic Transfer Characteristic (QTC) element from different perspectives, where they measured a few secondary properties of the structure which correspond to special behaviour because these properties can not be easily derived from the main characteristics.

Properties of SiGe microcrystals in strong magnetic fields for thermoelectric sensors

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of strain and elemental composition on thermoelectric properties of SiGe microwires for sensor applications at the influence of strong magnetic fields have been performed.

Considering Heat Flow for a DMOS Device

TL;DR: In this article, an analytical quasi-saturation model considering heat flow for a DMOS device was proposed, which showed that the drain current at quasi saturation is acceptable with a lattice temperature below 350 K. This is due to the limited heat sinking capability of the thermal contact node.

Thermal Conductivity of GaAs and GaAs1−xPx Laser Semiconductors

TL;DR: In this article, thermal conductivity measurements for both pure and heavily doped n− and p−type GaAs single crystals were reported for the range 3° to 300°K, with a K less than 1/20 that of pure GaAs at 77°K.

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.
