We report a new approach to the thermal conductivity manipulation -- substrate coupling. Generally, the phonon scattering with substrates can decrease the thermal conductivity, as observed in recent experiments. However, we find that at certain regions, the coupling to substrates can increase the thermal conductivity due to a reduction of anharmonic phonon scattering induced by shift of the phonon band to the low wave vector. In this way, the thermal conductivity can be efficiently manipulated via coupling to different substrates, without changing or destroying the material structures. This idea is demonstrated by calculating the thermal conductivity of modified double-walled carbon nanotubes and also by the ice nanotubes coupled within carbon nanotubes.
We study the effect of SiC substrate on thermal conductivity of epitaxial graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) using the nonequilibrium molecular dynamics method. We show that the substrate has strong interaction with single-layer GNRs during the thermal tran
Monolayer WS2 has been a competitive candidate in electrical and optoelectronic devices due to its superior optoelectronic properties. To tackle the challenge of thermal management caused by the decreased size and concentrated heat in modern ICs, it
Comprehensive understanding of thermal transport in nanostructured materials needs large scale simulations bridging length scales dictated by different physics related to the wave versus particle nature of phonons. Yet, available computational approa
Thermal conductivities are routinely calculated in molecular dynamics simulations by keeping the boundaries at different temperatures and measuring the slope of the temperature profile in the bulk of the material, explicitly using Fouriers law of hea
