We report Time-Domain ThermoReflectance experiments measuring the Thermal Boundary Conductance (TBC) of interfaces between diamond and metal surfaces, based on samples consisting of [111] diamond substrates with hydrogen or with sp2 carbon surface terminat ...
The thermal boundary conductance (TBC) between thin films of Cr, Mo, Nb and W and diamond substrates has been measured using time domain thermoreflectance before and after a high-vacuum heat treatment at 800 degrees C for 2 h. While no signs of carbide for ...
This work consists in an experimental study of the main parameters governing the transport of heat across an interface between two solids, when it is dominated by phonons. The main experimental tool used is Time-Domain ThermoReflectance (TDTR), which is an ...
An experimental process that was used to obtain a direct measurement of Thermal Boundary Conductance (TBC) between a diamond substrate and several transition metals, deposited by sputtering, is described. Using Time-Domain ThermoReflectance (TDTR), the cri ...
