1D-to-3D transition of phonon heat conduction in polyethylene using molecular dynamics simulations
The thermal conductivity of nanostructures generally decreases with decreasing size because of classical size effects. The axial thermal conductivity of polymer chain lattices, however, can exhibit the opposite trend, because of reduced chain-chain anharmonic scattering. This unique feature gives ri...
