Abstract
Heat transfer in layered metal-dielectric structures is considered theoretically based on an analytical solution of the Boltzmann transfer equation for the phonon distribution function. Taking into account the size effect, the problem of effective cross-plane thermal conductivity of structures containing two metal layers is analyzed in detail. If the thickness of the metal layers is less than the phonon mean free path, interlayer heat transfer is carried out predominantly by phonons, and the effective cross-plane thermal conductivity is determined by the reflection of phonons from the metal/dielectric interfaces. In the opposite case of thick metal layers, the effective cross-plane thermal conductivity is determined both by the thermal conductivity of the metal layers and by the thermal resistance of the dielectric layers. The results obtained are generalized to multilayer structures and superlattices.
期刊介绍:
Guided by an international editorial board, Low Temperature Physics (LTP) communicates the results of important experimental and theoretical studies conducted at low temperatures. LTP offers key work in such areas as superconductivity, magnetism, lattice dynamics, quantum liquids and crystals, cryocrystals, low-dimensional and disordered systems, electronic properties of normal metals and alloys, and critical phenomena. The journal publishes original articles on new experimental and theoretical results as well as review articles, brief communications, memoirs, and biographies.
Low Temperature Physics, a translation of the copyrighted Journal FIZIKA NIZKIKH TEMPERATUR, is a monthly journal containing English reports of current research in the field of the low temperature physics. The translation began with the 1975 issues. One volume is published annually beginning with the January issues.
