In article number 1906718, Mahmoud I. Hussein, Chia‐Nien Tsai, and Hossein Honarvar provide an in‐depth literature and technical review of nanophononic metamaterials (NPM) and nanophononic crystals (NPC), and their potential impact on thermoelectricity. These nanostructured materials exhibit unique features–nanoresonators in NPMs and periodicity in NPCs–that cause significant reductions in the thermal...
The notion of a locally resonant metamaterial—widely applied to light and sound—has recently been introduced to heat, whereby the thermal conductivity is reduced primarily by intrinsic localized atomic vibrations rather than scattering mechanisms. This article reviews and analyzes this new emerging concept, termed nanophononic metamaterial (NPM), and contrasts it with the competing concept of a nanophononic...
