Thermal Conductivity of the Rare-Earth Strontium Aluminates
The thermal conductivity of a series of complex aluminates, RE2SrAl2O7, with different rare-earth (RE) ions, has been measured up to 10001C. There is a strong dependence on the atomic number of the RE ion, ranging from an approximately 1/T dependence for the lanthanum strontium aluminate to an almost temperature-independent behavior of the dysprosium strontium aluminate. The latter conductivity...
متن کاملSchemes for and Mechanisms of Reduction in Thermal Conductivity in Nanostructured Thermoelectrics
Nonequilibrium molecular dynamics (NEMD) simulations were performed to investigate schemes for enhancing the energy conversion efficiency of thermoelectric nanowires (NWs), including (1) roughening of the nanowire surface, (2) creating nanoparticle inclusions in the nanowires, and (3) coating the nanowire surface with other materials. The enhancement in energy conversion efficiency was inferred...

متن کاملRare earth doped crystals for quantum information manipulation
Quantum information manipulation applied to computing is a promising way to dramatically improve some complex calculations and quantum systems simulation. To date, the physical systems able to perform quantum calculations are still very rare and limited to a few quantum bits, so called qubits. It has been proposed that rare earth ions in single crystals at liquid helium temperature could provid...
متن کاملUsing the Lattice Boltzmann Method for the numerical study of non-fourier conduction with variable thermal conductivity
The lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) was used to analyze two-dimensional (2D) non-Fourier heat conduction with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity. To this end, the evolution of wave-like temperature distributions in a 2D plate was obtained. The temperature distributions along certain parts of the plate, which was subjected to heat generation and constant thermal conductivity condit...
