  3. 3. Thermal conductivity of wide and ultra-wide bandgap semiconductors

    Author : Dat Tran; Plamen Paskov; Vanya Darakchieva; Martin Kuball; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; III-nitrides; β-Ga2O3; Thermal conductivity; Thermal transport;

    Abstract : This PhD thesis presents experimental and theoretical studies of the thermal conductivity of wide and ultra-wide bandgap semiconductors including GaN, AlN, β-Ga2O3 binary compounds, and AlxGa1−xN, ScxAl1−xN, YxAl1−xN ternary alloys. Thermal conductivity measurements are conducted using the transient thermoreflectance (TTR) technique and the results are interpreted using analytical models based on the solution of the Boltzmann transport equation (BTE) within the relaxation time approximation (RTA).
