Acoustic mismatch model for thermal contact resistance of van der Waals contacts
Abstract
Nanoparticles are typically in contact with another surface through weak van der Waals force. Thermal transport in these nanostructured systems is mainly limited by the contact resistance (Rc). Rc of nanoparticles have been typically calculated using the traditional acoustic or diffuse mismatch models, which assume very strong bond at the interface. In this paper, an analytical model of Rc that accounts for the strength of the interfacial bonding is presented. Conductance/area is proportional to the square of the adhesion energy of the interface for weak bonding and is the same as that given by traditional acoustic mismatch model for strong bonding.

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.
