โฆ Synopsis
Experimental data are presented on the changes of thermal conductivity of a number of polycrystalline graphites due to doping with boron and bromine, which respectively represent a substitutional and interstitial acceptor type defect. The results are compared with changes in thermal conductivity due to interstitial atoms and vacancies introduced by fast neutron irradiation. It is found that a substitutional boron atom in its ability to scatter phonons is roughly comparable to a lattice vacancy. The temperature dependence of the additional thermal resistance due to all four types of defects is found to be similarly increasing with decreasing temperature. A detailed attempt to fit a theoretical curve to the thermal conductivity results indicates that the mean free path for phonon scattering by point defects is independent of phonon frequency.
