Thermal Transport Across Interfaces
23 Aug 2011 | | Contributor(s):: Timothy S Fisher
These lectures provide a theoretical development of the transport of thermal energy by conduction in nanomaterials, in which material interfaces typically dominate transport. The physical nature of energy transport by two carriers: electrons and phonons--will be explored.
