Phonon boundary scattering is typically treated using the Fuchs-Sondheimer theory, which assumes that phonons are thermalized to the local temperature at the boundary. However, whether such a thermalization process actually occurs and its effect on thermal transport remains unclear. Here we examine thermal transport along thin films with both thermalizing and nonthermalizing walls by solving th...

This article reviews recent numerical studies of thermal transport in graphene, with a focus on molecular dynamics simulation, the atomistic Green’s function method, and the phonon Boltzmann transport equation method. The mode-wise phonon contribution to the intrinsic thermal conductivity (κ) of graphene and the effects of extrinsic mechanisms—for example, substrate, isotope, impurities, and de...

Thermal transport in DNA is systematically studied to facilitate the development of DNA-based nanoelectronics in thermal management aspect. Synthesis of crystalline DNAcomposited microfiber and microfilm, DNA nanofiber and DNA nanofiber array are developed in sequence to enable the thermal transport study in them. Thermo-physical properties, including thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity, ...

challenges facing many diverse industries, including microelectronics, transportation, solid-state lighting, and manufacturing. Technological developments such as microelectronic devices with smaller (sub-100 nm) features and faster (multi-gigahertz) operating speeds, higher-power engines, and brighter optical devices are driving increased thermal loads, requiring advances in cooling. The conve...

of phonon transport in graphene is discussed along with associated experimental and theoretical investigation techniques. Several theories and experiments have suggested that the absence of interlayer phonon scattering in suspended monolayer graphene can result in higher intrinsic basal plane thermal conductivity than that for graphite. However, accurate experimental thermal conductivity data o...
