Abstract

This project aims to develop some technicalities to realize a Thermal Transport Option (TTO) working with the two-omega and three-omega -AC method under extreme conditions. In order to reach our goals we involv the undergraduate student Guilherme Damacena de Castro with one of the Scientific Initiation (IC2) fellowship linked with our current JP processo 2018/08845-3. The success of this project will contribute to investigate thermoelectric properties of novel quantum phases with state-of-the-art thermal conductivity and heat capacity as function of temperature on thin films SrTiO3 and nanoparticles FeGa3-yGey.
