Quasi-ballistic thermal transport from nanoscale interfaces observed using ultrafast coherent soft X-ray beams
Abstract
Fourier theory of thermal transport considers heat transport as a diffusive process where energy flow is driven by a temperature gradient. However, this is not valid at length scales smaller than the mean free path for the energy carriers in a material, which can be hundreds of nanometres in crystalline materials at room temperature. In this case, heat flow will become 'ballistic'--driven by direct point-to-point transport of energy quanta. Past experiments have demonstrated size-dependent ballistic thermal transport through nanostructures such as thin films, superlattices, nanowires and carbon nanotubes. The Fourier law should also break down in the case of heat dissipation from a nanoscale heat source into the bulk. However, despite considerable theoretical discussion and direct application to thermal management in nanoelectronics, nano-enabled energy systems and nanomedicine, this non-Fourier heat dissipation has not been experimentally observed so far. Here, we report the first observation and quantitative measurements of this transition from diffusive to ballistic thermal transport from a nanoscale hotspot, finding a significant (as much as three times) decrease in energy transport away from the nanoscale heat source compared with Fourier-law predictions.

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.
