Abstract: Theoretical studies of heat generation and diffusion in Si devices generally assume that hot electrons in Si lose their energy mainly to optical phonons. Here, we briefly review the history of this assumption, and using… read more here.

Abstract: Energy loss varies with frequency in the lithosphere but not in the asthenosphere Ocean basins record the life history of a tectonic plate—its creation at a mid-ocean ridge, its thickening over time, and its consumption… read more here.
