Direct Measurement of Room-Temperature Nondiffusive Thermal Transport Over Micron Distances in a Silicon Membrane
Abstract
The “textbook” phonon mean free path of heat carrying phonons in silicon at room temperature is $${\sim}40\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{nm}$$. However, a large contribution to the thermal conductivity comes from low-frequency phonons with much longer mean free paths. We present here a simple experiment demonstrating that room-temperature thermal transport in Si significantly deviates from the diffusion model already at micron distances. Absorption of crossed laser pulses in a freestanding silicon membrane sets up a sinusoidal temperature profile that is monitored via diffraction of a probe laser beam. By changing the period of the thermal grating we vary the heat transport distance within the range $${\sim}1-10\text{ }\text{ }{\mu}\mathrm{m}$$. At small distances, we observe a reduction in the effective thermal conductivity indicating a transition from the diffusive to the ballistic transport regime for the low-frequency part of the phonon spectrum.
