Experiments show that carbon nanotubes transfer heat inefficiently at small scales, raising concerns for cooling and performance in nanoelectronic devices. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Thermal energy in solid ...
CAMBRIDGE, MA — It is estimated that about 70 percent of the energy generated worldwide ends up as waste heat. If scientists could better predict how heat moves through semiconductors and insulators, ...
If scientists could better predict how heat moves through semiconductors and insulators, they could design more efficient power generation systems. However, the thermal properties of materials can be ...
