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.

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.

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.
