Joule Heating
Hot phonons create
an increase in the
Joule heating power
(curve without
markers) of SWCNTs.
This influence is
more pronounced for
low temperatures
and slowly diminishes
with increasing
temperatures.

Phonon-Phonon Interactions
The transport properties of both heat and momentum are
directly affected by the quantized vibrations of the lattice
