| contents | Controlling thermal transport at the nanoscale is vital for many applications. Previously, it has been shown that this control can be achieved with periodically nanostructured two-dimensional phononic crystals, for the case of suspended devices. Here we show that thermal conductance can also be controlled with three-dimensional phononic crystals, allowing the engineering of the thermal contact of more varied devices without the need of suspension in the future. We show experimental results measured at sub-Kelvin temperatures for two different period three-dimensional crystals, as well as for a bulk control structure. The results show that the conductance can be enhanced with the phononic crystal structures in our geometry. This result cannot be fully explained by the simplest theory taking into account the coherent modification of the phonon band structure, calculated with finite element method simulations. |
