In an ultra-cold, high-magnetic-field setting, ZrTe5 defies expectations by showing quantum heat oscillations. Researchers ...

Complex materials such as organic compound semiconductors or the microporous metal-organic frameworks known as MOFs are ...

When fast-moving atoms or molecules hit slower-moving atoms or molecules and increase their speed, heat is transferred. This process is called conduction. The atoms in the hot spoon are moving faster ...

Using machine learning workflows developed in-house, researchers have established that heat conduction is much more intricate ...

There are better heat conductors but they aren't practical materials for producing computer heatsinks: silver exceeds copper's thermal conductivity at 429W/mK (hence Arctic Silver thermal paste ...

Complex materials such as organic semiconductors or the microporous metal-organic frameworks known as MOFs are already being ...

Scientists know well how conventional materials conduct heat. However, things are not as straightforward under extreme ...

Continuing the heat transfer series, in this video we take a look at conduction and the heat equation. Fourier's law is used to calculate the rate at which heat is transferred through an object due to ...

New insights into heat transport in organic semiconductors reveal tunneling effects, enhancing the design of materials with ...

The particles of liquids are further apart than solids. This means that most liquids are poor conductors of heat because the frequency of collisions is reduced. The particles of gases are even ...

Heat energy can flow by conduction, convection or radiation. It always flows from a region of high temperature to a region of low temperature i.e. from hot to cold. Conduction is the flow of heat ...

The ability to conduct heat is one of the most fundamental properties of matter, crucial for engineering applications. Scientists know well how conventional materials, such as metals and insulators, ...
