description | In this work, the thermal conductivity performance of graphene kirigami (GK) was systematically investigated via molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The results indicate that the degree of defects (DD) on GK has a significant influence on thermal conductivity. Reducing the DD is the most effective way to decrease the thermal conductivity of GK. For zigzag-incised GK sheets, the change rate of thermal conductivity can reach up to 1.86 W/mK per 1% change in DD by tuning the incision length. The rate of changing thermal conductivity with DD can be slowed down by changing the width among incisions. Compared with the zigzag-incised GK sheets, heat transfer across the armchair-incised GK comes out more evenly, without significant steep and gentle stages along the heat transfer routes. More importantly, the GK structure can adjust the thermal conductivity by stretching, which the previously reported nanoporous graphene does not have. The change rate of thermal conductivity achieves about 0.17 W/mK with 1% stretching strain for simulated GK and can be further reduced at high tensile strain rates, benefiting the precise and variable control of the thermal conductivity of the monolayer graphene. |
