متن کاملStrong Surface Orientation Dependent Thermal Transport in Si Nanowires
Thermoelectrics, which convert waste heat to electricity, offer an attractive pathway for addressing an important niche in the globally growing landscape of energy demand. Research to date has focused on reducing the thermal conductivity relative to the bulk. Si nanowires (NWs) have received exceptional attention due to their low-dimensionality, abundance of availability, and high carrier mobil...
متن کاملMechanics of Silicon Nanowires: Size-Dependent Elasticity From First Principles
We review our recent work on the mechanics of silicon nanowires based on first-principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations. We focus especially on the size dependence of the Young’s modulus, but also comment on the size dependence of the residual stress and the equilibrium length of the hydrogen-passivated Si nanowires. We compare these results to prior results from classical molecu...
متن کاملTuning thermal transport in Si nanowires by isotope engineering.
We study thermal transport in isotopically disordered Si nanowires, discussing the feasibility of phonon engineering for thermoelectric applications within these systems. To this purpose, we carry out atomistic molecular dynamics and nonequilibrium Green's function calculations to characterize the dependence of the thermal conductance as a function of the isotope concentration, isotope radial d...
متن کاملThermal Conductivity of Si Nanowires Using Atomistic Phonon Dispersions
The thermal properties of Si nanowires (NWs) are of high interest for a variety of applications such as thermal management and thermoelectricity. Most simulation studies to date use the Si bulk dispersion within a confined geometry. The phonon dispersion in ultra-narrow 1D NWs, however, is different from the bulk dispersion, and can lead to different thermal properties. In this work, we study t...
