Carbon Nanotube Ballistic Thermal Conductance and Its Limits

Mingo, N., Broido, D. A.·2005·Physical Review Letters

Abstract

Calculations of the quantum-mechanical ballistic thermal conductance of single-walled carbon nanotubes, graphene, and graphite are presented, which explain previous experimental results, and directly disprove earlier theoretical calculations. The ballistic thermal conductances are smaller than had been previously thought, whereas the maximum sample lengths in which phonon transport remains ballistic are orders of magnitude larger than previously suggested. Good agreement with previous experiments is obtained, which shows that measured lower bounds to the thermal conductance of multiwalled carbon nanotubes are very close to the upper theoretical bounds for graphite. The bounds shown here draw a line between what is physical and unphysical in any measurements or calculations of carbon nanotube thermal conductance, and constitute a necessary test to their validity.

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.
