Phononic crystals (PnCs) control the transport of sound and heat similar to the control of
electric currents by semiconductors and metals or light by photonic crystals. Basic and …

Nanophononics is essential for the engineering of thermal transport in nanostructured
electronic devices, it greatly facilitates the manipulation of mechanical resonators in the …

Thermal transport properties and thermodynamic quantities often present anomalous
behaviors in low-dimensional systems. In this paper, it is found that temperature oscillates …

To meet polymeric material sustainability requirements of the modern polymer industry, a
novel diphenyl-based monomer, dimethyl 2, 2'-((carbonylbis (4, 1-phenylene)) bis (oxy)) …

The low lattice thermal conductivity and high thermoelectric performance of the Janus Tl 2
SSe monolayer in the temperature region of 300–700 K are identified based on the …

Periodic materials with sub-micrometer characteristic length scale can provide means for
control of propagation of hypersonic phonons. In addition to propagation stopbands for the …

We show how the elastic response of metallic nano-cavities can be tailored by tuning the
interplay with an underlying phononic superlattice. In particular, we exploit ultrafast optical …

Hypersonic phononic bandgap structures confine acoustic vibrations whose wavelength is
commensurate with that of light, and have been studied using either time-or frequency …

Determination of the anisotropic mechanical properties of nanostructured hybrid films is of
great importance to improve fabrication and to enable reliable utility. Here, we employ …

The influence of a thin polycarbonate de-adhesion layer on the hydrogen concentration is
studied on 30 nm vanadium films deposited on glass substrates, using electrochemical …
