Thermal Conductivity in Nanoporous Gold Films during Electron-Phonon Nonequilibrium

الملخص EN

The reduction of nanodevices has given recent attention to nanoporous materials due to their structure and geometry.

However, the thermophysical properties of these materials are relatively unknown.

In this article, an expression for thermal conductivity of nanoporous structures is derived based on the assumption that the finite size of the ligaments leads to electron-ligament wall scattering.

This expression is then used to analyze the thermal conductivity of nanoporous structures in the event of electron-phonon nonequilibrium.
