Microelectronic components- length scale lower than 30 nm- film thickness less than10 nm
Motivations : applications
Require temperature measurements in order to ensure the reliability of the microsystem
Nanostructured materials (nanoporous, nanosequences, nanolayered)
Nanostructures (nanoparticles, nanotubes, nanowires, nanofilms…)
Require experimental caracterisationslimitation until now : almost one experimental device has been developped for each nanostructure
Motivations : applications
SiC/graphitelike Cnanosequence matérial
SiO2/SiCnanowire
SiC/SiO2/BNnanowire
Temperature measurement
Thermophysical properties measurement
High spatial resolutionbelow 100 nm
Quantitative measurementlower the uncertainty and higher sensitivity
Motivations : development of a new sensor
The most popular commercial sensor actually used with an AFM
Diameter : 5 µm
Length : 200 µm
Curvature radius : 15-20 µm
Motivations : development of a new sensor

Thermal conductivity- low sensitivity at high thermal conductivity values- uncertainty of about 20 % at low thermal conductivity values

Temperature measurement- qualitative values only- quantitative measurement require a calibration - spatial resolution limited by the tip geometry and surface roughness
Interfaces
nanowire
nanolayers
Core : BN, SiCcrystalline / periodic defect (mâcle)
layers :metallicdielectric crystal (SiC)/amorphous (SiO2)
The new sensor : a functionalised multilayer nanowire
The sensor should exhibit a low thermal conductivityin order to a good temperature and thermal conductivity sensitivity
The prediction of the thermal conductivity is essential to optimize the design of the sensor.
Motivations : development of a new sensor

Thermal conductivity versus thermal conductance/thermal resistance ?
Length l
Heat transfer across the nanowire depends on heat transfer
- in the core (dielectric crystal)- in metallic nanolayer- in amorphous nanolayer- in dielectric nanolayer- across the interfaces forecoming studies

CONCLUSION
Thermal conductivity of dielectric nanofilms and nanowires
Thermal conductivity of metallics and amorphous nanofilms
Thermal conctact resistance
Confident to get a accurate value
The bulk value overestimate the real value
Still a Problem, several models may be used However, one need to evaluate the maximun value of the thermal conductivity
