چکیده

The transport mean free path of microwave radiation in a random sample is determined from measurements of transmission through a composite sample of the medium with unknown scattering characteristics and a random medium of variable thickness and known scattering parameters. The method can be applied at optical frequencies by use of a ceramic wedge as the medium of variable thickness.

Conductance of T-shaped Graphene nanodevice with single disorder

Disordered T-shaped graphene nanodevice (TGN) was designed and studied in this paper. We demonstrated the intrinsic transport properties of the TGN by using Landauer approach. Knowing the transmission probability of an electron the current through the system is obtained using Landauer-Buttiker formalism. The effects of single disorder on conductance, current and on the transport length scales a...

Optical path-length spectroscopy of wave propagation in random media.

We propose optical path-length spectroscopy as a new approach to obtaining information from media that exhibit multiple light scattering. By using a backscattering technique based on low-coherence interferometry, we are able to determine the optical path-length distribution for light reflected from a random medium and to infer the value of the transport mean free path. We illustrate how a diffu...

Self-consistent Green’s functions calculation of the nucleon mean-free path

Transport coefficients provide a unique insight into the near-equilibrium behavior of quantum many-body systems. The mean-free path, λ, of a particle within a dense medium is a basic transport coefficient, at the basis of several theoretical concepts and closely related to experimentally measured quantities. Green’s functions techniques are particularly well suited to study such transport prope...

Measuring Phonon Mean Free Path Distributions by Probing Quasiballistic Phonon Transport in Grating Nanostructures

Heat conduction in semiconductors and dielectrics depends upon their phonon mean free paths that describe the average travelling distance between two consecutive phonon scattering events. Nondiffusive phonon transport is being exploited to extract phonon mean free path distributions. Here, we describe an implementation of a nanoscale thermal conductivity spectroscopy technique that allows for t...
