Measurement of Low Temperature Thermal Properties of Microcalorimeters Using Johnson Noise Thermometry
<p>Calorimetric measurments and thermal transport measurments through a-Si<sub>x</sub>N<sub>y</sub> suspended membranes have been performed to further the understanding of low temperature thin film thermal transport, and understand the interesting physics present within an amorphous dielectric …

The Pressure Dependence of the Low Temperature Thermal Properties of an Amorphous Polymer
The low-temperature behavior of glasses has been described as anomalous for its marked differences from crystalline behavior and as universal for its apparently weak dependence on chemical composition of the glass. For temperatures below 1 K the phenomemological Tunneling Model and the existence of …

Generation of ultrahigh frequency acoustic waves for the characterization of complex materials
A discussion of the anomalous low-temperature thermal properties of amorphous materials is first given as a theoretical framework in which the rest of the thesis is treated. The theory models the form and function of microscopic dynamical and structural features that are thought to be common to …
