Toward phonon-boundary engineering in nanoporous materials

Tuning thermal transport in nanostructured materials is a powerful approach to develop high-efficiency thermoelectric materials. Using a recently developed approach based on the phonon mean free path dependent Boltzmann transport equation, we compute the effective thermal conductivity of nanoporous...
