Electrical conductors are generally assumed to also conduct heat well. Defying this conventional wisdom, my research group at the University of British Columbia has discovered the “Heat Trap” effect: the strong confinement of heat in certain nanostructured conductors and the subsequent thermionic emission of electrons. For the past 6 years, this highly surprising effect has formed the core of my research program along two thrusts: 1) elucidating its physics and 2) establishing it as a foundational technology for multiple promising applications.

通常认为电导体也具有良好的导热性。与这种传统观念相反，我在不列颠哥伦比亚大学的研究小组发现了“热阱”效应：某些纳米结构导体中热量的强烈限制以及随后的电子热电子发射。在过去的六年里，这种非常令人惊讶的效应已经形成了我的研究计划的核心，主要有两个主旨：1）阐明其物理原理，2）将其确立为多种有前途应用的基础技术。
