Graphene nanoribbon bandstructure

17 Apr 2010 | Animations | Contributor(s): Saumitra Raj Mehrotra, Gerhard Klimeck

Graphene nanoribbons (often abbreviated as GNR) are planar strips of graphene with a thickness of approximately one atom. Carbon atoms in graphene are sp2-hybridized with a carbon-carbon bond length of approximately 0.142 nm. As an electronic material, graphene exhibits many desirable properties, …

Thermal Conductance of solid-Solid and Solid-Liquid Interfaces

08 Apr 2005 | Notes | Contributor(s): David G. Cahill

The thermal conductance of interfaces is a key factor in controlling thermal conduction in nanostructured materials, composites, and individual nanostructures. We have recently advanced the state-of-the-art of time-domain-thermoreflectance (TDTR) measurements of thermal transport and are using TDTR …
