From: Probing thermal transport across amorphous region embedded in a single crystalline silicon nanowire
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. (a) The dependence of interface thermal conductance on the length of amorphous segment from MD calculation. The detailed heat flux and temperature jump across the interface are shown in Supporting Information Fig. S6. The inset is crystalline/amorphous structure. (b) The calculated density of states (DOS) for amorphous silicon nanowires with various length. The DOS is nearly independent on the length of amorphous silicon nanowire.
