Graphene, a material which consists of a single layer of carbon atoms, has been celebrated by many as the 'next big thing' in material science. But according to researchers, its thermal properties may ...

Integrated optoelectronic devices, with electrons and photons as energy and information carriers, dominate current daily life and industrial development. However, electron- and photon-based devices ...

Electron-phonon scattering is often the primary mechanism limiting electron mobility in semiconductors. Thus, changing phonon properties can provide a way to control conductivity. Recently, there has ...

This study demonstrated that nanoscale boundary scattering could increase the phonon thermal conductivity in thin films, surpassing the limitations of traditional macroscale heat diffusion. Energy ...
