We demonstrate a noncontact thermal microprobe technique for measuring the thermal conductivity κ with ∼3 μm lateral spatial resolution by exploiting quasiballistic air conduction across a 10-100 nm air gap between a joule-heated microprobe and the sample. The thermal conductivity is extracted from the measured effect…

Abstract The interaction between large metal‐oxide polyanions and their counterions is unique. Owing to their size disparity, there is a moderate ion‐pairing effect and loose distribution of counterions around macroions, which leads to the unique solution behavior and the self‐assembly of the macroions in polar solven…
