Figure Legend:
Comparison of the thermal conductivity of a periodically aligned nanocomposite with 50nm cubic silicon particles distributed in a germanium matrix and that of a random composite with silicon nanoparticles having a size range from 10nmto100nm distributed randomly in a germanium matrix as a function of germanium atomic composition.
