Colloquium: Phononic thermal properties of two-dimensional materials (2017, methodology): “Such an explanation has been widely used to explain the lower thermal conductivity of nanostructured bulk semiconductors (Yang and Chen, 2004; Yang, Chen, and Dresselhaus, 2005).”
On the tuning of electrical and thermal transport in thermoelectrics: an integrated theory–experiment perspective (2016, unknown): “The κL is typically determined by the surface area and the volumetric fraction of the composite, as shown by the study with different types of Si nanowires embedded in the Ge host.(113,114) Size effects in the phonon transport of Ge containing Si nanoparticles were emphasised by the Monte Carlo simu”
Transition metal oxides – Thermoelectric properties (2013, background): “4 Compositing It is suggested that composites can be useful in controlling TE parameters of TMOs, as they can be designed to show high density of the interfaces[112], that can be used for adjusting both phonon and electron scattering.”
