Abstract
- This chapter introduces the thermal conductivity of a novel one-dimensional carbon nanostructure - diamond nanothread. It starts by introducing the family of the diamond nanothread as acquired from density functional theory calculations and also its successful experimental synthesisation. It then briefs the mechanical properties of the diamond nanothreads as a fundamental for their engineering applications. After that, it focuses on the thermal transport properties of the diamond nanothreads by examining the influences from various parameters such as size, geometry, and temperature. Then, the application of diamond nanothread as reinforcements for nanocomposites is discussed. By the end of the chapter, future directions and their potential applications are discussed.<br />Comment: 19 pages, 13 figures
