Description

Wonsik Lee and co-authors report a 2026 study of heat flow in graphite fluoride, a layered form of carbon bound with fluorine. Past theory work was rich, but lab proof on heat flow through the layers was thin. The team peeled flakes and read heat flow both across and along the layers with light-pulse tools.

Flow across the layers was the lowest yet seen for a fully dense solid, while flow along them ran a hundredfold higher. Wide spread in layer gaps and stacking faults explain the across-layer block. Small fluorinated grains account for the lower along-layer flow.
