Optimal Nanostructure Helps Minimize Thermal Conductivity of Semiconductor Materials

Optimal Nanostructure Helps Minimize Thermal Conductivity of Semiconductor Materials

Professor Junichiro Shiomi et al. from The University of Tokyo aimed to reduce the thermal conductivity of semiconductor materials by reducing the internal nanostructure, and successfully minimized thermal conductivity by designing, fabricating, and evaluating the optimal nanostructure-multilayer materials through materials informatics (MI), which combines machine learning and molecular simulation.
