Thermal Conductivity Measurements in Atomically Thin Materials and Devices

Thermal Conductivity Measurements in Atomically Thin Materials and Devices Synopsis

This book assesses the thermal feasibility of using materials with atomically thin layers such as graphene and the transition metal dichalcogenides family in electronics and optoelectronics applications. The focus is on thermal conductivity measurement techniques currently available for the investigation of thermal performance at the material and device level. In addition to providing detailed information on the available techniques, the book introduces readers to novel techniques based on photothermal effects.
