Applied Thermal Measurements at the Nanoscale

by Christopher Eric Dames

"This book can serve as a practical guide for novices to design and conduct measurements of thermal properties at the nanoscale using electrothermal techniques. An outgrowth of the authors' tutorials for new graduate students in their own labs, it includes practical details on measurement design and selection, sensitivity and uncertainty analysis, and pitfalls and verifications. The information is particularly helpful for a novice setting up their own experiment for the first time. How to use thermal analysis to design an experiment for best sensitivity is shown, as well as how to configure...
