In this paper, we first investigate the electronic properties of the two-dimensional structure of
dichalcogenide Pd2S4. These properties strongly depend on the crystal field splitting which …

This paper reveals the mechanism of nanowelding a branched network of single-walled
carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) used as a framework for the formation of protein–polymer …

This chapter provides a brief overview on the recent development of the thermionic electron
emission models for two-dimensional (2D) materials, such as graphene. It describes that the …

We present a heat transfer model to obtain the temperature distribution within aligned
nanorod arrays. The model includes thermal conduction along each nanorod in addition to a …

It is often desirable to cause rapid thermal cycles in isolated systems, and it is convenient to
do so by means of radiant heating and cooling. In principle, the rate of heating is arbitrarily …

Understanding the long-term behavior of one-dimensional nanostructures at high
temperatures is important for various applications ranging from thermionic emission to …

We have developed a thermal radiation (blackbody emission) hyperspectroscopy apparatus
with a spectral range of~ 1–7 µm and a spatial resolution of~ 10 µm, with the sample held in …

This chapter starts with a brief overview of the status of research in thermionic emission from
carbon nanotubes and reviews a heat localization phenomenon that enables efficient …

Thermal energy conversion promises readily available sources of clean, renewable energy
through technologies such as thermionic or thermoelectric devices, which can enhance …

The purpose of this study was to improve upon the design of a high-spatial-resolution
broadband hyperspectroscopy system primarily by building a full-stack automation software …
