## Abstract The thermal conductivity of a (5, 5) carbon nanotube at room temperature is studied by nonβequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations. The thermal conductivity increases from 30 W/(mΒ·K) to 1000 W/(mΒ·K) as the tube length increases from 6 nm to 4 Β΅m. It is proportional to the tube length
## Abstract Molecular dynamics simulation using the new fit of the empirical Tersoff Potential is applied to study the thermal properties of ZnSe at and below the room temperature. The resulting diffusivity and thermal conductivity are compared with the photoacoustic measurements on the grown ZnSe
