مستخلص: We propose a theoretical model to investigate the nonlinear thermal properties in dielectric four-terminal nanostructures at low temperatures. In this model, the gate temperature effect on the thermal flow from source to drain is built based on mesoscopic ballistic-phonon transport. Thermal flow versus temperature difference between source and drain is calculated for the fixed gate temperature. Saturation of thermal flow is showed with increasing the temperature difference. A reasonable explanation for the phenomenon is given by the nonlinear variation in temperature dependence of propagating phonon modes in source and drain terminals. The research results suggest the possibility of the nanothermal transistor fabrication. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
