Remarkable thermal conductivity reduction in metal-semiconductor nanocomposites

Tuhin Shuvra Basu, Ronggui Yang, and Suraj Joottu Thiagarajan et al.

Remarkable reduction in thermal conductivity, by ∼2 orders of magnitude compared to the bulk counterpart, is observed in a metal-semiconductor nanocomposite consisting of silver (Ag) and silicon (Si) nanostructures. The variation of thermal conductivity with temperature and with volume fraction of ... [Appl. Phys. Lett. 103, 083115 (2013)] published Fri Aug 23, 2013.
