Control of Nanoscale Thermal Transport for Thermoelectric Energy Conversion and Thermal Rectification
Materials at the nanoscale show properties uniquely different from the bulk scale which when controlled can be utilized for variety of thermal management applications. Different applications require reduction, increase or directional control of thermal conductivity. This thesis focuses on investigat...
