Comparison of isotope effects on thermal conductivity of graphene nanoribbons and carbon nanotubes

Xiuqiang Li, Jie Chen, and Chenxi Yu et al.

By using molecular dynamics simulation, we explore the isotope effect on thermal conductivity of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs). For both GNRs and CNTs, the lattice thermal conductivity decreases when isotope concentration increases from 0% to 30%. The thermal conductivity ... [Appl. Phys.
