New article on interface driven thermal rectification in a graphene–bilayer graphene junction
A new paper from NiPS reports on a series of controlled computational experiments based on non-equilibrium molecular dynamics and show that at the nanoscale, the thermal rectification is determined by the thermal boundary resistance, and cannot be explained without it.
