In this work, a thermal switch is proposed based on the phase-change material vanadium dioxide (VO2) within the framework of near-field radiative heat transfer (NFRHT). The radiative thermal switch consists of two metamaterials filled with…
The attachment of semiconducting nanoparticles to carbon nanotubes is one of the most challenging subjects in nanotechnology. Successful high coverage attachment and control over the charge transfer mechanism and photo-current generation…
Developing thermal analogues of field-effect transistor could open the door to a low-power and even zero-power communication technology working with heat rather than electricity. These solid-sate devices could also find many applications in…
In general, it is difficult to access the thermal conductivity of thin insulating films experimentally just by electrical means. Here, we present a new approach utilizing the tunnel magneto-Seebeck effect (TMS) in combination with…
TiO$_{2-\delta}$ films were deposited on (100) Lanthanum aluminates LaAlO$_{3}$ substrates at a very low oxygen chamber pressure $P\approx 0.3$ mtorr employing a pulsed laser ablation deposition technique. In previous work, it was…
High superconducting transition temperature is favorable for the applications of superconductors. Some cuprate superconductors have the transition temperatures above 100 K, such as the Hg- or Tl-based 1223 and 1234 phases, but many of them…
Heat dissipation is a very critical problem for designing nano-functional devices, including MoS2/Graphene heterojunctions. In this paper we investigate thermal transport in MoS2/Graphene hybrid nanosheets under various heating conditions,…
Thermal management has become a promising field in recent years due to the limitation of energy resources and the global warming. An important topic in improving the efficiency of thermal energy utilization is how to control the flows of…
A highly strained BiFeO3 (BFO) thin film is transformed between phases with distinct structures and properties by nanosecond-duration applied electric field pulses. Time-resolved synchrotron x-ray microdiffraction shows that the…
Vanadium dioxide (VO2) is a phase change material that can reversibly change between high and low resistivity states through electronic and structural phase transitions. Thus far, VO2 memory devices have essentially been volatile at room…
Funtionalized pentacene, 6,13-bis(triisopropylsilylethynyl)pentacene (TIPS-pentacene), field-effect transistors(FET's) were made by thermal evaporation or solution deposition method and the mobility was measured as a function of temperature…
We report in situ characterized TiO2 thin-films deposited on optical fiber, having thicknesses in the 20-100nm range, and having enhanced conductivity values of 700S/cm upon interacting with hydrogen. This conductivity was achieved in pure…
With the recent experimental verification that ferroelectric lattice distortions survive in the metallic phase of some materials, there is a desire to create devices that are both switchable and take advantage of the novel functionalities…
