High thermal conductivity of graphene and structure defects:Prospects for thermal applications in graphene sheets

摘要

The utilization of thermal energy from different sources is an important development direction for conserving energy.With the development of technology,refined and rapid utilization of thermal energy is required.Traditional thermal conductive materials cannot meet the growing needs of human beings.Therefore,people pay attention to two-dimensional graphene film materials for their thermal conductivity.This review collects current modeling group of thermal transport on graphene,including non-equilibrium Green function(NEGF)theory,molecular dynamics(MD)simulations modeling and Boltzmann transport equation method.These models can well explain several phenomena of phonon transport in graphene.Furthe r,structural de fects were discussed and expounded the effect for graphene thermal conductivity,including doping,grain bounda ry and defects.Deeply understanding of defects on graphene,we can better grasp the thermal conductivity of graphene from the microscopic point of view.
