Thermal Transport Measurements of Individual Multiwalled Nanotubes
Thermal Transport Measurements of Individual Multiwalled Nanotubes
The thermal conductivity and thermoelectric power of a single carbon nanotube were measured using a microfabricated suspended device. The observed thermal conductivity is more than 3000 W/K m at room temperature, which is 2 orders of magnitude higher than the estimation from previous experiments that used macroscopic mat samples. The …
