Improved Efficiency of Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells Using a Vertically Aligned Carbon Nanotube Counter Electrode
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) offer many advantages in comparison to their Si-based counterparts, including lower cost of raw materials, faster manufacturing time, and the ability to be ...
Heat Transfer Across Metal-Dielectric Interfaces During Ultrafast-Laser Heating
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Heat transfer across metal-dielectric interfaces involves transport of electrons and phonons accomplished either by coupling between phonons in metal and dielectric or by coupling between electrons ...
Palladium Thiolate Bonding of Carbon Nanotube Thermal Interfaces
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Carbon nanotube (CNT) arrays can be effective thermal interface materials with high compliance and conductance over a wide temperature range. Here, we study CNT interface structures in which ...
Characterization of Metallically Bonded Carbon Nanotube-Based Thermal Interface Materials Using a High Accuracy 1D Steady-State Technique
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The next generation of thermal interface materials (TIMs) are currently being developed to meet the increasing demands of high-powered semiconductor devices. In particular, a variety of nanostructured ...
