Light beam dynamics in materials with radially-inhomogeneous thermal conductivity

open access: yes, 2013
We study the properties of bright and vortex solitons in thermal media with nonuniform thermal conductivity and homogeneous refractive index, whereby the local modulation of the thermal conductivity strongly affects the entire refractive index ...

Thermal conductivity of ethanol

open access: yesThe Journal of Chemical Physics, 2005
We present a factorization of the Ewald sum permitting efficient computation of the reciprocal space part of the molecular representation for the heat flux vector. We use the derived expression to evaluate thermal conductivity of a model of ethanol at several near-ambient state points.

Effects of nano-void density, size, and spatial population on thermal conductivity: a case study of GaN crystal

open access: yes, 2012
The thermal conductivity of a crystal is sensitive to the presence of surfaces and nanoscale defects. While this opens tremendous opportunities to tailor thermal conductivity, a true "phonon engineering" of nanocrystals for a specific electronic or ...

Correlation of Superlattice Cross-Plane Thermal Conductivity with Emission Wavelength in InAlAs/InGaAs Quantum Cascade Lasers

open access: yesMicromachines, 2022
The low cross-plane thermal conductivity of quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) is a significant limitation in their Continuous-Wave (CW) performance. Structural parameters such as individual layer thicknesses and interface density vary for QCLs with different

The Thermal Conductivity of Liquids

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1923
This note briefly summarizes new results on the thermal conductivity of liquids which will be described in greater detail in a forthcoming number of the Proceedings of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. The results are of two kinds: in the first place measurements of the effect of pressure on thermal conductivity, and in the second place a ...

Thermal conductivity of deformed carbon nanotubes

open access: yes, 2011
We investigate the thermal conductivity of four types of deformed carbon nanotubes by using the nonequilibrium molecular dynamics method. It is reported that various deformations have different influence on the thermal properties of carbon nanotubes. For
