ABSTRACTWe study Raman phonon vibrations and relate them to thermal conductivity for empty and filled skutterudites designed for thermoelectric applications, where low thermal conduction is critical. Polarized Raman scattering spectra of crystallite and polycrystalline samples are compared with theoretical predictions and analyzed in comparison to the thermal conduction properties. Our emphasis is on the CoSb3 skutterudite and its filled derivatives, including materials with Ge, Sn, and La in the cages. We observe a strong correlation between aspects of the Raman spectrum and low thermal conductivity. This presents Raman spectroscopy as a characteristic screening tool for potential thermoelectrics and is a crucial step toward predicting lattice thermal conductivities.

AbstractCooling down nanomechanical force probes is a generic strategy to enhance their sensitivities through the concomitant reduction of their thermal noise and mechanical damping rates. However, heat conduction becomes less efficient at low temperatures, which renders difficult to ensure and verify their proper thermalization. Here we implement optomechanical readout techniques operating in the photon counting regime to probe the dynamics of suspended silicon carbide nanowires in a dilution refrigerator. Readout of their vibrations is realized with sub-picowatt optical powers, in a situation where less than one photon is collected per oscillation period. We demonstrate their thermalization down to 32 ± 2 mK, reaching very large sensitivities for scanning probe force sensors, 40 zN Hz−1/2, with a sensitivity to lateral force field gradients in the fN m−1 range. This opens the road toward explorations of the mechanical and thermal conduction properties of nanoresonators at minimal excitation level, and to nanomechanical vectorial imaging of faint forces at dilution temperatures.

The thickness dependency of the temperature image obtained by an infrared thermography was investigated using specimens with three kinds of materials and four kinds of the thickness of the specimen. Only the sum of the principal stresses which is the first invariant of stress tensor is measured, and it is impossible to measure individual stress components directly. Then, the infrared hybrid method was developed to separate individual stress components. Although the form of the contour line of low stress side differs greatly, the distribution form of high stress side was considerably alike. The stress intensity factor of material with low thermal conductivity can be estimated with high accuracy by the infrared hybrid method. On the crack problem, it was elucidated that the influence of thermal conduction is large and an inverse problem analysis is required.

This research aims to study the temperature characteristic of porous cement concrete as an alternative pavement that can help to mitigate urban heat island effect, and all the benefits it can provide, along with several offspring. Three experiments conducted in this research focus on the effect of specimen thickness,moisture content and wind speed on the thermal conduction properties of porous cement concrete. Isostatic pressing method is adopted in the molding process of specimens and reserved holes method is utilized to measure the internal temperature of the specimens.The data presented in this paper explains the tend of thermal conduction properties accompanying the increase of specimen thickness,moisture content and wind speed.

The microstructural change of graphite was studied after ultrasonic treatment of the graphite. When the graphite solution was treated with varying ultrasonic power and time, the microstructure changed gradually, and accordingly, the thermal conductivity characteristics of the composite containing the as-treated graphite was also different with each other. Thermal conductivity showed the best result in the silicone composite containing graphite prepared under the optimum condition of ultrasonic treatment, and the thermal conductivity of the composite improved proportionally along with the particle size of graphite. When the silicone composite was prepared by using a mixture of inorganic oxides and graphite rather than graphite alone, the thermal conductivity of the silicone composite was further increased. A silicone composite containing graphite was used for LED (light emitting diode) lighting system as a thermal interface material (TIM), and the temperature elevation due to heat generated, while the lighting was actually operated, was analyzed.

Abstract Thermal conduction is a heat transfer mechanism. It is present in our everyday lives. Studying thermal conductivity helps us better understand the phenomenon of heat conduction. The goal of this paper is to measure the thermal conductivity of various materials and compare results with the values provided by the manufacturers. To achieve this we assembled a measuring instrument and performed measurements on heat insulating materials.
