Due to the radiative thermal conductivity of the mineral olivine, only oceanic plates over 60 million years old and subducting at more than 10 centimeters per year remain sufficiently cold to ...

Gold's stability has been found to be 14 times its melting point, challenging thermodynamic principles, offering insights ...

New research reveals that only the oldest and fastest-sinking oceanic plates can transport water deep into Earth’s mantle, due to the unique heat-transferring properties of the mineral olivine.

Measurements have been made of the separation produced by thermal diffusion in all the binary mixtures of the inert gases (except Kr-X and Rn mixtures) at temperatures ranging from -180 to 400 ° C.

Directional thermal diffusion and insulation of in-plane anisotropic carbon fiber/CNF nanocomposite films. In a new study, scientists from Japan designed flexible thermal diffusion films made of ...

Bing Tong, Zhiqiu Gao, Robert Horton, Linlin Wang, Soil Apparent Thermal Diffusivity Estimated by Conduction and by Conduction–Convection Heat Transfer Models, Journal of Hydrometeorology, Vol. 18, No ...

Mellen Oxidation and Diffusion Furnace Two Mellen clamshell furnaces are situated in room 428. These furnaces are designated for the growth of silicon oxide and thermal diffusion of n and p type ...

Thus, there is a need for thermal diffusion materials that are thin and flexible and can be implemented in thin-film devices for efficient heat dissipation.

In a traditional thermal diffusion system, APT symmetry is not consequential because there is no gain or loss degree of freedom. Hence, the mechanical rotation is the key player here," he explained.

Thermal diffusion doping involves placing a source of dopant atoms (phosphorus or boron in this case) on top of the chip to be doped, heating the chip, and letting the dopant atoms diffuse into ...
