Carrier-phonon interaction in small cross-sectional silicon nanowires
Using first-order perturbation theory and deformation potential approximation, the interaction of electrons and holes with acoustic and optical phonons is investigated in silicon nanowires SiNWs with different diameters and crystallographic axis orientations. The electronic band structures for 110 and 100 SiNWs are obtained from a sp3d5s tight-binding scheme, while a continuum model is assumed ...
متن کاملImpact of Phonon Surface Scattering on Thermal Energy Distribution of Si and SiGe Nanowires
Thermal transport in nanostructures has attracted considerable attention in the last decade but the precise effects of surfaces on heat conduction have remained unclear due to a limited accuracy in the treatment of phonon surface scattering phenomena. Here, we investigate the impact of phonon-surface scattering on the distribution of thermal energy across phonon wavelengths and mean free paths ...
متن کاملIndividualization and Electrical Characterization of SiGe Nanowires
SiGe nanowires of different Ge atomic fractions up to 15% were grown and ex-situ n-type doped by diffusion from a solid source in contact with the sample. The phenomenon of dielectrophoresis was used to locate single nanowires between pairs of electrodes in order to carry out electrical measurements. The measured resistance of the as-grown nanowires is very high, but it decreases more than thre...
متن کاملDraft: Phonon Transport in Asymmetric Sawtooth Nanowires
Thermal transport in asymmetric sawtooth nanowires was investigated. The boundaries reflect phonons differently depending on the frequency and momentum of the phonon. These systems show thermally rectifying behavior when the boundary reflections are a function of both the direction the phonon is traveling and the frequency of the phonon. This rectifying effect could be useful for thermal manage...
