Specific heat of phonon cavities is investigated in order to analyse the effect of phonon confinement on thermodynamic properties. The specific heat of free standing very thin SiN membranes in the low dimensional limit is measured down to…
A theoretical description of the interacting Bose-system is proposed. It is based on the extrapolation of the results obtained for the systems with a small number of particles N=2, 3, 4, etc. to the bulk case of N=\infty. It is shown that…
We experimentally study for the first time the self-heating normal domain in magnetic field using nanowires made of granular NbTiN films with sub-10~nm thicknesses. Specifically, we found that at temperatures below 10 K, the heat capacity…
We present a study on the magnetic properties of naked and silica-coated Fe3O4 nanoparticles with sizes between 5 and 110 nm. Their efficiency as heating agents was assessed through specific power absorption (SPA) measurements as a function…
We have studied high temperature thermal behavior of 1H, 1H, 2H, 2H-Perfluorooctyl-trichlorosilane (FOTS) and Octyltrichlorosilane (OTS) molecules self assembled on titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles using advanced microscopy and…
Ti-O nanoparticles have been synthesized via hollow cathode sputtering in an Ar-O2 atmosphere using high power pulsing. It is shown that the stoichiometry and the size of the nanoparticles can be varied independently, the former through…
The main objective of the present study is to investigate the effect of adding nanoparticles at different concentrations and sizes to boiling distilled water on the nucleate pool boiling heat transfer performance. The major studied…
Current thermometry techniques lack the spatial resolution required to see the temperature gradients in typical, highly-scaled modern transistors. As a step toward addressing this problem, we have measured the temperature dependence of the…
Quantum size effect-induced heat capacity of metal nanoparticles at low temperatures was predicted 79 years ago to be exponential. This, however, has not been reported until date. In defiance, we demonstrate here observation of…
The recent identification of strongly bound excitons in room temperature anatase TiO$_2$ single crystals and nanoparticles underscores the importance of bulk many-body effects in samples used for applications. Here, for the first time, we…
Thermal properties of few-fermion (n < 5) systems are investigated. The dependence of the heat capacity on the topology and shape of the cavity containing the particles is analyzed. It is found that the maximum of the heat capacity,…
The excess heat capacity at glass transition temperature in two types of glass-forming systems of [xNaNO3\cdot(1-x)KNO3]60[Ca(NO3)2]40 (0 \leq x \leq 1) and Ca(NO3)2\cdotyH2O (4 \leq y \leq 13) is studied. In the former system, with the…
TiO$_{2}$ nanoparticles (NPs) have unique photocatalytic properties, which are used in food industries, medicine, biosensorics, and solar energy conversion. Since the toxic properties of TiO$_{2}$ NPs have been insufficiently studied,…
Plasmonic nanoheaters are reported that produce a significant local heating when excited by a 532 nm wavelength focussed laser beam. A significant temperature increase derives from the strong confinement of electric field enabled by the…
Magnetic nanoparticles (MNP's) have become increasingly important in heating applications such as hyperthermia treatment of cancer due to their ability to release heat when a remote external alternating magnetic field is applied. It has…
In transition metal oxides, quantum confinement arising from a large surface to volume ratio often gives rise to novel physico-chemical properties at nanoscale. Their size dependent properties have potential applications in diverse areas,…
We study the thermal response of a single spherical metal nanoparticle to continuous wave illumination as a function of its size. We show that the particle temperature increases non-monotonically as the particle size increases, indicating…
In this paper we use layer potentials and asymptotic analysis techniques to analyze the heat generation due to nanoparticles when illuminated at their plasmonic resonance. We consider arbitrary-shaped particles and both single and multiple…
We calculate the dependence of heat capacity of a free standing thin membrane on its thickness and temperature. A remarkable fact is that for a given temperature there exists a minimum in the dependence of the heat capacity on the…
Ti3SiC2 is a potential structural material for nuclear reactor applications. However, He irradiation effects in this material are not well understood, especially at high temperatures. Here, we compare the effects of He irradiation in…
