THERMALIZATION OF HIGH-FREQUENCY PHONONS IN SILICON SINGLE CRYSTALS
R.E. Horstman et J. WolterPhilips Research Laboratories, Eindhoven, The Netherlands
Abstract
Heat pulses generated by means of small constantan heaters were transmitted through long silicon single crystals. Despite isotope scattering we find the transmitted energy to depend linearly on the applied heater power for heater temperatures between 5 K and 30 K. We obtain evidence that rapid thermalization of the phonon pulse takes place in the vicinity of the heater.
