Theses and Dissertations
As semiconductor electronics, in particular high electron mobility transistors, get hot in operation, people are trying to incorporate different semiconductor materials to solve the problem of heat dissipation to maintain the device efficiency and performance. In this master thesis, two different packages, LAMMPS and almaBTE, that are focusing on micro-scale and atomic scale respectively, are used to simulate the heat transfer process across interfaces in two different scales. In the LAMMPS simulation, the research is exploring how the location of atoms and the thickness of interfacial layers will influence the interfacial thermal conductance. On the other hand, using the almaBTE …
