Metal Found Carrying Heat Through Two Channels
Original: A Metal with Two Heat Carriers
Physicists have reported a metal in which heat is carried by two distinct carriers, electrons and lattice vibrations, rather than the single channel typical of ordinary metals. The finding, highlighted by the American Physical Society, is drawing attention from researchers studying thermal transport and could inform work on thermoelectric materials and heat management in electronics.
Why now: A new physics result on unusual heat conduction in metals is of interest to the research community.
