We propose to operate a superconducting transition edge sensor (TES) using a different type of biasing, in which the resistance of the TES is kept constant by means of feedback on the bias voltage and is independent of the incoming signal…
The temperature dependent energy transfer rate between charge carriers and lattice has been experimentally investigated in ferromagnetic semiconductors. Studied 100 nm thick low-temperature MBE grown Mn_{x}Ga_{1-x}As samples had manganese…
While cryogenic-temperature subthreshold swing (SS) in crystalline semiconductors has been widely studied, a careful study on the temperature-dependent SS in amorphous oxide semiconductors remains lacking. In this paper, a comprehensive…
We performed measurements at helium temperatures of the electronic transport in an InAs quantum wire ($R_{wire} \sim 30$\,k$\Omega$) in the presence of a charged tip of an atomic force microscope serving as a mobile gate. The period and the…
A new result enables direct calculation of thermoelastic damping in vibrating elastic solids. The mechanism for energy loss is thermal diffusion caused by inhomogeneous deformation, flexure in thin plates. The general result is combined…
In aluminium electrolysis cells, a ledge of frozen electrolyte is formed, attached to the sides of the cell. The control of the side ledge thickness is essential in ensuring a reasonable lifetime for the cells. Numerical modelling of the…
We studied phase coherent phenomena in mesoscopic Permalloy samples by exploring low temperature transport. Both, differential conductance as a function of bias voltage and magnetoconductance of individual wires display conductance…
The sensitivity of future gravitational wave (GW) observatories will be limited by thermal noise in a wide frequency band. To reduce thermal noise, the European GW observatory Einstein GW Telescope (ET) is suggested to use crystalline…
Departures in phonon heat conduction from diffusion have been extensively observed in nanostructures through their thermal conductivity reduction and largely explained with classical size effects neglecting phonon's wave nature. Here, we…
Temperature-dependent thermal conductivity of epitaxial silicon nano-crystalline (SiNC) structures composed of nanometer-sized grains separated by ultra-thin silicon-oxide (SiO2) films is measured by the time domain thermoreflectance…
SnSe is a topical thermoelectric material with a low thermal conductivity which is linked to its unique crystal structure. We use low-temperature heat capacity measurements to demonstrate the presence of two characteristic vibrational…
In a neutral system such as liquid helium-3, transport of mass, heat, and spin provide information analogous to electrical counterparts in metals, superconductors and topological materials. Of particular interest is transport in strongly…
This work is aimed at the study and analysis of the heat transport on a metal bar of length $L$ with a solid-solid interface. The process is assumed to be developed along one direction, across two homogeneous and isotropic materials.…
Heusler type compounds have long been recognized as potential thermoelectric (TE) materials. Here, the experimentally observed TE properties of Fe$_{2}$VAl are understood through electronic structure calculations in the temperature range of…
We have measured the low-temperature transport properties of a T-shaped quantum dot. Replicated oscillations superimposed on one-dimensional conductance steps are observed. These structures are consistent with electron phase-coherent length…
The aim of this article is to discuss the estimation of the diffusivity coefficient of a homogeneous metal rod from temperature values at a fixed point in the bar for different time instants. The time-dependent problem of heat conduction is…
We investigate transport through ionic liquid gated field effect transistors (FETs) based on exfoliated crystals of semiconducting WS$_2$. Upon electron accumulation, at surface densities close to -or just larger than- 10$^{14}$ cm$^{-2}$,…
Cubic boron arsenide (BAs) is an emerging semiconductor material with a record-high thermal conductivity of 1300 W/mK. However, many fundamental properties of BAs remain unexplored experimentally. Here, for the first time, we report the…
ErTe$_3$ is studied as a model system to explore thermal transport in a layered charge density wave (CDW) material. We present data from thermal diffusivity, resistivity, and specific heat measurements: There is a sharp decrease in thermal…
How ordered phases melt in low-dimensional quantum materials remain difficult to resolve because the relevant fluctuations are dynamic and charge neutral. In this work, we show that thermal transport provides a sensitive probe of these…
