The form of energy termed heat that typically derives from lattice vibrations, ie, phonons, is
usually considered as waste energy and, moreover, deleterious to information processing …

Advances in the fabrication and characterization of nanoscale systems now allow for a better
understanding of one of the most basic issues in science and technology: the flow of heat at …

Recent results on theoretical studies of heat conduction in low-dimensional systems are
presented. These studies are on simple, yet non-trivial, models. Most of these are classical …

Significant progress has been made in the past two decades about the micro/nanoscale
heat conduction. Many computational methods have been developed to accommodate the …

Transport of electrons in a single molecule junction is the simplest problem in the general
subject area of molecular electronics. In the past few years, this area has been extended to …

Molecular scale charge motion in disordered organic materials at ambient temperature
occurs via a hop**-type mechanism with rates dictated both by the charge transfer integral …

Single-molecule junctions have been extensively used to probe properties as diverse as
electrical conduction,–, light emission, thermoelectric energy conversion,, quantum …

In this colloquia review we discuss methods for thermal transport calculations for
nanojunctions connected to two semi-infinite leads served as heat-baths. Our emphases are …

Graphene is an outstanding material with ultrahigh thermal conductivity. Its thermal transfer
properties under various strains are studied by reverse nonequilibrium molecular dynamics …
