THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY IN NOVEL 2D MATERIALS: A COMPARATIVE STUDY

Abstract

This research investigates the thermal conductivity of novel two-dimensional (2D) materials, including graphene, molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂), and hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN). The study employs both experimental and computational methods to understand phonon transport, lattice vibrations, and anisotropic heat conduction mechanisms. Results demonstrate that graphene exhibits the highest thermal conductivity, exceeding 3000 W/mK, whereas MoS₂ and h-BN display lower but tunable thermal characteristics. This comparative analysis highlights the potential of 2D materials in nanoscale heat management applications for electronic and optoelectronic devices.
