The introduction of engineered resonance phenomena on surfaces has opened a new
frontier in surface science and technology. Pillared phononic crystals, metamaterials, and …

The notion of a locally resonant metamaterial—widely applied to light and sound—has
recently been introduced to heat, whereby the thermal conductivity is reduced primarily by …

The low rectification ratio limits the application of thermal rectifiers. In this paper, it is found
that a series circuit of thermal rectifiers in asymmetric graphene/graphene phononic crystal …

The terms of topological and quantum stabilities of low-dimensional crystalline carbon
lattices with multiple non-equivalent sublattices are coined using theoretical analysis …

We observe directly the lattice vibration and its multifold effect on electron transport in zigzag
graphene nanoribbons in simulation by utilizing an efficient combined method. The results …

By using first-principles calculations combined with the nonequilibrium Green's function
method and phonon Boltzmann transport equation, we systematically investigate the …

Inspired by the novel mechanism of reducing thermal conductivity by local phonon
resonance instead of by inducing structural defects, we investigate the effect of side …

By using non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations, modulating the temperature
dependence of thermal conductivity of graphene phononic crystals (GPnCs) is investigated …

In this letter, graded pillared graphene structures with carbon nanotube–graphene
intramolecular junctions are demonstrated to exhibit ultrahigh thermal rectification. The …

We describe the influence of the geometry parameters on the thermal rectification of single-
carbon nanotube–graphene junction. The two-dimensional (2D) distribution of the thermal …
