Miniaturization of electronic devices aims at manufacturing ever smaller products, from mesoscopic to nanoscopic sizes. This trend is challenging because the increased levels of dissipated power demands a better understanding of heat…
Nanostructured semiconducting alloys obtain ultra-low thermal conductivity as a result of the scattering of phonons with a wide range of mean-free-paths (MFPs). In these materials, long-MFP phonons are scattered at the nanoscale boundaries…
