Thermal conduction in titanium-chromium oxide natural superlattices with an ordered arrangement of nearly pristine interfaces

抄録

Thermal conduction was investigated in titanium-chromium oxide natural superlattices with an ordered arrangement of crystallographic shear planes, which were nearly pristine interfaces for thermal phonons. Thermal conductivity exhibited a clear maximum value at around 50 K, which indicates interface roughness as small as 20 pm based on the calculation of thermal conductivity by a modified Debye-Callaway model. With an ordered arrangement of nearly pristine interfaces at nanoscale, the wave contribution to phonon transport was estimated to be predominant at lower temperatures (less than 100 K) and as much as 30 % even at room temperature. We found that the interface roughness greatly influences the thermal conduction in natural superlattice systems, which may lead to variations in the reported value of thermal conductivity. We have demonstrated that the wave contribution of thermal conductivity become apparent in bulk crystal having nano scale periodic structure with pristine interfaces.
