• Unveiling Phonon Contributions to Thermal Transport and the Failure of the Wiedemann-Franz Law in Ruthenium and Tungsten Thin Films

  ArXiv.org · 2025-05-12

  preprintOpen access

  Thermal transport in nanoscale interconnects is dominated by intricate electron-phonon interactions and microstructural influences. As copper faces limitations at the nanoscale, tungsten and ruthenium have emerged as promising alternatives due to their substantial phonon contributions to thermal conductivity. Metals with stronger phonon-mediated thermal transport are particularly advantageous in nanoscale architectures, where phonons are less sensitive to size effects than electrons. Here, we sh…

• X-Ray Photoemission Investigation of the Beryllium Oxide Band Alignment with Magnesium Oxide and Estimates for Other Insulating and Conducting Oxides

  ECS Meeting Abstracts · 2021-05-30

  articleSenior author

  Beryllium oxide (BeO) is a wurtzite structured, large bandgap ( E g > 8 eV) material of significant interest as an alloying agent and cladding dielectric in various wide band gap oxide based optoelectronic devices. The success of such devices is highly reliant on bandgap and band alignment engineering to achieve sufficient charge carrier and optical confinement for device operation. In this regard, we have utilized x-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) to determine the valence band offset (V…
