In this talk, we will discuss a series of atomistic simulations of thermal transport in polymers. We will first discuss how polyethylene molecules can be re-formed into highly aligned forest through self-assembling to conduct heat across two solid substrates efficiently. The results show the promise of polyethylene in thermal interface material applications and implies the strategy of reforming polymers into thermal conductors. We will then discuss the results on Polydimethylsiloxane  (PDMS) – the most widely used thermal interface polymer. The restuls suggest a strong correlation between the molecular morphology and thermal transport properties. Lastly, we will discuss our findings on the morphology-thermal conductivity dependency in polyethylene fibers, and show how we can utilize such a correlation to manipulate thermal conductivity through temperature, strain and their combination.
