Predicting the Thermal Conductivity of Si and Ge Nanowires
Abstract
We theoretically predict the thermal conductivity versus temperature dependence of Si and Ge nanowires. Three methods are compared: the traditional Callaway and Holland approaches, and our “real dispersions” approach. Calculations with the former two show large disagreements with experimental data. On the contrary, the real dispersions approach yields good agreement with experiments for Si nanowires between 37 and 115 nm wide, approximately. In all cases, only bulk data are used as inputs for the calculation. Predictions for Ge nanowires of varying diameters are given, enabling future experimental verification.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
