In this work we investigate heat conduction along a ladder-model conformed by two coupled one dimensional lattices with different anharmonicity. We study how the interchain coupling modifies the thermal properties of the isolated systems.…
Observed spectral profiles of emission lines from the corona are found to have widths exceeding the thermal line width. To investigate the physical mechanism, we run a 3D MHD model of a single, straightened loop in which we partially…
Biphenylene nanotubes (BPNNTs) represent a novel class of carbon-based nanomaterials, constructed by rolling a biphenylene network (BPN) monolayer into a one-dimensional tubular structure. In this study, the thermal transport properties of…
Thermal diodes that enable directional heat transport are essential for advanced thermal management in microelectronics, energy systems, and thermal logic devices. However, existing designs based on phase-change materials, nanostructures,…
Hyperbolic metamaterials (HMMs) support propagating waves with arbitrarily large wavevectors over broad spectral ranges, and are uniquely valuable for engineering radiative thermal transport in the near field. Here, by employing a rational…
Fibres of ultralong and aligned carbon nanotubes (CNT) have axial properties above reference engineering materials, proving to be exceptional materials for application in structural composites, energy storage and other devices. For CNT…
We compute atomistically the heat conductance for ultra-thin pristine silicon nanowires (SiNWs) with diameters ranging from 1 to 5 nm. The room temperature thermal conductance is found to be highly anisotropic: wires oriented along the…
Semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes are studied in the diffusive transport regime. The peak mobility is found to scale with the square of the nanotube diameter and inversely with temperature. The maximum conductance, corrected for…
The continuous two-dimensional (2D) elastic model for single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) provided by Tu and Ou-Yang in [Phys. Rev. B \textbf{65}, 235411 (2003)] is reduced to a one-dimensional (1D) curvature elastic model strictly. This…
Heat conduction of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) isotope-superlattice is investigated by means of classical molecular dynamics simulations. Superlattice structures were formed by alternately connecting SWNTs with different masses.…

Thermal rectification is observed in jointless Pb wires at temperatures near the superconducting transition of Pb under magnetic fields. Using different magnetic-field (H) response of temperature dependence of thermal conductivity…
Thermal transport properties of amorphous carbon has attracted increasing attention due to its extreme thermal properties: It has been reported to have among the highest thermal conductivity for bulk amorphous solids up to $\sim$ 37…
Recently, it has been shown that in graded systems, thermal rectification (TR) effect may remain in the thermodynamical limit. Here, by taking the one-dimensional rotor lattice as an illustrating model, we investigate how the graded…

DNA has a well-defined structural transition -- the denaturation of its double-stranded form into two single strands -- that strongly affects its thermal transport properties. We show that, according to a widely implemented model for DNA…
In this paper, we report on the impact of metal/polymer interfaces on the rectifying behavior of novel multi-segmented hybrid nanowires (HNWs) made of metallic and conjugated polymer (CP) segments. Using HNWs integrated in micromachined…
We have shown theoretically that a combination of cross-section modulation and acoustic mismatch in the core-shell Si/Ge nanowires can lead to a drastic reduction of the thermal conductivity. Our calculations, which utilized two different…

We report a new approach to the thermal conductivity manipulation -- substrate coupling. Generally, the phonon scattering with substrates can decrease the thermal conductivity, as observed in recent experiments. However, we find that at…
