Figure 2
Time dependence of the temperatures: maximum and average temperature in the nanowire, dTmax and dTave, respectively, and the maximum temperature in the substrate, dTsub. (a) Single pulse, the first 5 ns, linear plot. (b) Single pulse, the first 100 ns, semi-logarithmic plot. The decay time constant of dTave is 20.8 ns. (c) Repeated pulses with 3 ns period, linear plot. The arrow indicates dTave from the steady-state simulations. The full simulation can be found as Video 2 in the supporting information. |
