Organisation profile
The Group of Thermal Properties of Nanoscale Materials (GTNaM) is a multidisciplinary group with researchers from 3 different institutions (UAB, ICN2-CSIC and UPC) and complementary expertise covering theoretical, experimental and more applied activities revolving around thermal properties of matter. The members of the group have been collaborating for many years now to achieve a better comprehension of thermal and transport properties in a variety of materials with the final goal to build more efficient thermal-based devices for energy scavenging, thermal management or thermal sensing. Our activities span from the development of new, state-of-the-art, measurement tools to access heat capacity, phase transitions and phonon transport in low-dimensional solids to the development of theoretical models that account for non-Fourier effects in heat transport and can be linked to numerical simulation tools for a better understanding of heat transfer and thermoelectricity in solids.
