Measurement of the electron-phonon coupling factor dependence on film thickness and grain size in Au, Cr, and Al
Abstract
Femtosecond thermoreflectance data for thin films and bulk quantities of Au, Cr, and Al are compared with the parabolic two-step thermal diffusion model for the purpose of determining the electron-phonon coupling factor. The thin films were evaporated and sputtered onto different substrates to produce films that vary structurally. The measurement of the electron-phonon coupling factor is shown to be sensitive to grain size and film thickness. The thin-film thermoreflectance data are compared with that of the corresponding bulk material and to a theoretical model relating the coupling rate to the grain-boundary scattering and size effects on the mean free path of the relevant energy carrier.

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.
