Phonons in Nanocrystalline 57Fe
We measured the phonon density of states (DOS) of nanocrystalline Fe by resonant inelastic nuclear g-ray scattering. The nanophase material shows large distortions in its phonon DOS. We attribute the high energy distortion to lifetime broadening. A damped harmonic oscillator model for the phonons provides a low quality factor, Qu, averaging about 5, but the longitudinal modes may have been broa...
متن کاملThermal transport in nanocrystalline materials
In this work, thermal transport in nanocrystalline materials is studied using large-scale equilibrium molecular dynamics simulation. Nanocrystalline materials with different grain sizes are studied to explore how and to what extent the size of nanograins affects the thermal conductivity and specific heat. Substantial thermal conductivity reduction is observed and the reduction is stronger for n...
متن کاملIon Conduction in Oriented Domains in Poly(ethylene-oxide)-Polyethylene Systems
The ionic conductivity of LiSO3CF3 complexed with wax-like solids of the general form H-(CH2)32 (CH2CH2O)10-H were investigated. The conductivity of the waxes studied in this work should be dependent on the shape of the domains. Conductivity measurements were made perpendicular, σ⊥, and parallel, σ, to the direction of molecular orientation. Depending on the size of the conducting domains, an...
متن کاملBallistic thermal transport in silicon nanowires
We have experimentally investigated the impact of dimensions and temperature on the thermal conductivity of silicon nanowires fabricated using a top-down approach. Both the width and temperature dependences of thermal conductivity agree with those in the existing literature. The length dependence of thermal conductivity exhibits a transition from semi-ballistic thermal phonon transport at 4 K t...
متن کاملThermal logic gates: computation with phonons.
Logic gates are basic digital elements for computers. We build up thermal logic gates that can perform similar operations as their electronic counterparts. The thermal logic gates are based on nonlinear lattices, which exhibit very intriguing phenomena due to their temperature dependent power spectra. We demonstrate that phonons, the heat carriers, can also be used to carry information and proc...
