Title of dissertation: OPTICAL AND THERMAL PROPERTIES OF NANOPOROUS MATERIAL AND DEVICES Kyowon Kim, Doctor of Philosophy, 2015 Dissertation directed by: Professor Thomas E. Murphy Dept. of Electrical & Computer Engineering In this thesis, we investigate the optical and thermal properties of porous silicon and its applications. In first part, porous silicon’s optical properties and application ...

Spherical Accretion with Anisotropic Thermal Conduction

We study the effects of anisotropic thermal conduction on magnetized spherical accretion flows using global axisymmetric MHD simulations. In low collisionality plasmas, the Bondi spherical accretion solution is unstable to the magnetothermal instability (MTI). The MTI grows rapidly at large radii where the inflow is subsonic. For a weak initial field, the MTI saturates by creating a primarily r...

Strong anisotropic thermal conductivity of nanoporous silicon

Nanoporous silicon is known to have a thermal conductivity that is orders of magnitude smaller than the bulk crystalline silicon from which it is formed. Even though the strong columnar microscopic structure of porous silicon indicates the possibility of highly anisotropic thermal properties, there have been no measurements. We report here an experimental investigation of this anisotropy. An an...
