Allotropes of carbon, such as diamond and graphene, are among the best conductors of heat. We monitored the evolution of thermal conductivity in thin graphite as a function of temperature and thickness and found an intimate link between…
The thermal conductivity of monolayer graphene is an outstanding challenge with no consensus reached on its exact value and length convergence so far. We consider four-phonon scattering, phonon renormalization, and an exact solution to…
Understanding microscopic heat conduction in thin films is important for nano/micro heat transfer and thermal management for advanced electronics. As the thickness of thin films is comparable to or shorter than a phonon wavelength, phonon…
The lattice thermal conductivity of graphene is evaluated using a microscopic model that takes into account the lattice's discrete nature and the phonon dispersion relation within the Brillouin zone. The Boltzmann transport equation is…
Based on the phonon Boltzmann transport equation under the relaxation time approximation, analytical expressions for the temperature profiles of both steady state and modulated heat conduction inside a thin film deposited on a substrate are…
The conductance of thin films with diffusive surface scattering was solved semi-classically by Fuchs and Sondheimer. However, when the intrinsic electron mean free path is very large or infinite their conductance diverges. In this letter a…

Understanding the mechanisms of thermal conduction in graphene is a long-lasting research topic, due to its high thermal conductivity. Peierls-Boltzmann transport equation (PBTE) based studies have revealed many unique phonon transport…
By studying the temperature-dependent behavior of electron thermal conductivity (k) in a 3.2 nm-thin film, we quantify the extremely confined defect-electron scattering and reveal the intrinsic phonon-electron scattering that is shared by…
We have measured the heat conduction between 0.05 K and 1.0 K of high purity silicon wafers carrying on their polished faces a variety of thin dielectric films and polycrystalline thin metallic films. Using a Monte Carlo simulation to…
The wave property of phonons is employed to explore the thermal transport across a finite periodic array of nano-scatterers such as circular and triangular holes. As thermal phonons are generated in all directions, we study their…
In this paper we present a mathematical analysis of thin film flow and heat transfer to a laminar liquid film from a horizontal stretching sheet. The flow of thin liquid film and subsequent heat transfer from the stretching surface is…
Recently, an anisotropic Debye model [Dames et al., Physical Review B 87, 12 (2013)] was proposed for calculations of the interfacial thermal conductance and the minimum thermal conductivity of graphite-like layered materials. Despite…
Boundary scattering in hierarchically disordered nanomaterials is an effective way to reduce the thermal conductivity of thermoelectric materials and increase their performance. In this work we investigate thermal transport in silicon based…
Declining the lattice thermal conductivity in graphene is essential for its thermoelectric applications. In high electron density systems, scatterings of phonons by electrons are no less than the phonon scatterings by other phonons. With…
For conventional materials, the thermal conductivity of thin film is usually suppressed when the thickness decreases due to phonon-boundary scattering. However, this is not necessarily true for the van der Waals solids if the thickness is…
We study the spreading of viscous drops on a solid substrate, taking into account the effects of thermal fluctuations in the fluid momentum. A nonlinear stochastic lubrication equation is derived, and studied using numerical simulations and…
