Atomic scale ‘lasagna’ keeps heat at bay
Oct 23, 2021 (Nanowerk News) Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have found new ways of controlling how heat flows through thin materials by stacking atomically thin layers of atoms into van der Waals heterostructures. By comparing different stacks of different materials, or even the same material after heat treatment, they...
