Suppression of phonon heat conduction in cross-section-modulated nanowires
We have theoretically demonstrated that phonon heat flux can be significantly suppressed in Si and Si/SiO2 nanowires with the periodically modulated cross-section area—referred to as the cross-section-modulated nanowires—in comparison with the generic uniform cross-section nanowires. The phonon energy spectra were obtained using the five-parameter Born–von Karman-type model and the face-centere...
متن کاملDefect Facilitated Phonon Transport through Kinks in Boron Carbide Nanowires.
Nanowires of complex morphologies, such as kinked wires, have been recently synthesized and demonstrated for novel devices and applications. However, the effects of these morphologies on thermal transport have not been well studied. Through systematic experimental measurements, we show that single-crystalline, defect-free kinks in boron carbide nanowires can pose a thermal resistance up to ∼30 ...
متن کاملRaman scattering as a probe of phonon confinement and surface optical modes in semiconducting nanowires
Raman scattering is shown to be an effective probe of optical and surface optical phonons in highly crystalline semiconducting nanowires (SNWs). We show that the confinement model of Richter et al. well describes the nanowire diameter dependence of the asymmetric broadening of the onephonon band in Si nanowires observed at ∼ 520 cm−1. We also show that the use of high laser flux (∼ 0.1 mW/μm2) ...
متن کاملFemtosecond electron imaging of defect-modulated phonon dynamics.
Precise manipulation and control of coherent lattice oscillations via nanostructuring and phonon-wave interference has the potential to significantly impact a broad array of technologies and research areas. Resolving the dynamics of individual phonons in defect-laden materials presents an enormous challenge, however, owing to the interdependent nanoscale and ultrafast spatiotemporal scales. Her...
متن کاملQuantifying surface roughness effects on phonon transport in silicon nanowires.
Although it has been qualitatively demonstrated that surface roughness can reduce the thermal conductivity of crystalline Si nanowires (SiNWs), the underlying reasons remain unknown and warrant quantitative studies and analysis. In this work, vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) grown SiNWs were controllably roughened and then thoroughly characterized with transmission electron microscopy to obtain detaile...
