Etymology
nano- + quilt
Noun
nanoquilt (plural nanoquilts)
- A nanomaterial that is an efficient thermal insulator
- 2016, Zhongwei Zhang, Yuee Xie, Qing Peng, Yuanping Chen, “Geometry, stability and thermal transport of hydrogenated graphene nanoquilts”, in Solid State Communications, volume 213, pages 213-214:
- For the two-fold graphene nanoquilt, both geometry and thermal conductivity are very sensitive to the adsorbed hydrogen chains, which is interpreted by the red-shift of PDOS.
