متن کاملSuppression 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 کاملModeling and Analysis of Core-Shell Si/SiGe Nanowires
In this thesis, I present a theoretical model for the Si core/SiGe shell core-shell nanowire system. A model for the single carrier pocket core-shell nanowire is first developed, along with the boundary conditions of a circular wire and sharp interfaces between the two media. A numerical scheme is then developed for the core-shell nanowire system, along with educated approximations for the nume...
متن کاملThermal conductivity in thin silicon nanowires: phonon confinement effect.
Thermal conductivity of thin silicon nanowires (1.4-8.3 nm) including the realistic crystalline structures and surface reconstruction effects is investigated using direct molecular dynamics simulations with Stillinger-Weber potential for Si-Si interactions. Thermal conductivity as a function of decreasing nanowire diameter shows an expected decrease due to increased surface scattering effects. ...
