Trans-phonon effects in ultra-fast nanodevices.
We report a novel phenomenon in carbon nanotube based ultra-fast mechanical devices, the trans-phonon effect, which resembles the transonic effects in aerodynamics. It is caused by dissipative resonance of nanotube phonons similar to the radial breathing mode, and subsequent drastic surge of the dragging force on the sliding tube, and multiple phonon barriers are encountered as the intertube sl...
متن کاملNanophononics: phonon engineering in nanostructures and nanodevices.
Phonons, i.e., quanta of lattice vibrations, manifest themselves practically in all electrical, thermal and optical phenomena in semiconductors and other material systems. Reduction of the size of electronic devices below the acoustic phonon mean free path creates a new situation for phonon propagation and interaction. From one side, it complicates heat removal from the downscaled devices. From...
متن کاملQuantum and Coulomb Effects in Nanodevices
In state of the art devices, it is well known that quantum and Coulomb effects play significant role on the device operation. In this paper we demonstrate that a novel effective potential approach in conjunction with a Monte Carlo device simulation scheme can accurately capture the quantummechanical size quantization effects. We also demonstrate, via proper treatment of the short-range Coulomb ...
متن کاملUltra-Fast Image Reconstruction of Tomosynthesis Mammography Using GPU
Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) is a technology that creates three dimensional (3D) images of breast tissue. Tomosynthesis mammography detects lesions that are not detectable with other imaging systems. If image reconstruction time is in the order of seconds, we can use Tomosynthesis systems to perform Tomosynthesis-guided Interventional procedures. This research has been designed to study u...
متن کاملBallistic phonon transport in ultra-thin silicon layers: Effects of confinement and orientation
We investigate the effect of confinement and orientation on the phonon transport properties of ultrathin silicon layers of thicknesses between 1 nm and 16 nm. We employ the modified valence force field method to model the lattice dynamics and the ballistic Landauer transport formalism to calculate the thermal conductance. We consider the major thin layer surface orientations {100}, {110}, {111}...
