Thermal Characterization of Multi-wall Carbon Nanotube Bundles Based on Pulsed Laser-assisted Thermal Relaxation
نویسندگان
چکیده
A novel transient technique is developed to measure the thermal diffusivity of one-dimensional microscale wires. In this technique, a pulsed nanosecond laser is used to quickly heat the wire. After laser heating, the wire temperature decays slowly. Such temperature decay is sensed and used to determine the thermal diffusivity of the wire. A 25.4μm thin Pt wire is characterized to verify this technique. The thermal diffusivity of multi-wall carbon nanotube bundles is measured. Based on the measurement result and the inside structure, the thermal diffusivity of individual carbon nanotubes is estimated.

A focused laser beam is used to heat individual single-walled carbon nanotube bundles bridging two suspended microthermometers. By measurement of the temperature rise of the two thermometers, the optical absorption of 7.4-10.3 nm diameter bundles is found to be between 0.03 and 0.44% of the incident photons in the 0.4 microm diameter laser spot. The thermal conductance of the bundle is obtained...

Thermal transport measurements in multi-wall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) bundles at elevated temperatures up to 830 K are reported using a novel generalized electrothermal technique. Compared with individual CNTs, the thermal conductivity (k) of MWCNT bundles is two to three orders of magnitude lower, suggesting the thermal transport in MWCNT bundles is dominated by the tube-to-tube thermal contact...
