  • Abstract
    Here the author outlines only a few nanoscale phenomena that adversely affect thermal conductivity and can complicate heat removal from nanoscale electronic devices. Since progress in the electronic industry is largely associated with device down-scaling, he considers that research on this subject is worth pursuing
