... 09 03 2011 MCM-41 consists of a hexagonal array of long, unconnected cylindrical pores with diameters that can be tailored within the range 1.6–10nm. As a porous silica nano-material, MCM-41 is thought to have a special thermal conductivity and is a promising porous substrate...

...-in-binary solution (O/S) emulsion. To stabilize the nanoemulsions in a strong electrolyte, a polymeric stabilizer (Gum Arabic) is used as a steric stabilizer. The droplet size and the thermal conductivity of binary nanoemulsions are measured by the dynamic light scattering method and the transient hot-wire...

... to understand and study thermal transport in silicon and aluminum, and some preliminary modeling to study thermal transport at the interface between silicon and aluminum. A good match is shown between our modeling results for thermal conductivity in silicon and aluminum and the experimental data. The modeling...

... of metallic nanofilm is proposed based on the Energy Conservation Law, in which the electron-phonon scattering induced electron energy decrease is supposed to be counteracted by the phonon energy increase. The present model greatly improves the prediction of thermal conductivity in thin films compared...

... 09 03 2011 The objective of this paper is to determine the thermal conductivity of Zinc Oxide nanowire by Steady State Non-equilibrium and Transient Non-equilibrium Molecular Dynamics (SS-NEMD and T-NEMD) simulations using the ReaxFF reactive force field [5]. While SS-NEMD uses...
