1. A nanotube phonon waveguide device, comprising:

  • (a) a heat source;

    (b) a heat sink;

    (c) a nanotube attached at one end to the heat sink and at another end to the heat source, said nanotube providing a phonon path between the heat source and the heat sink, said nanotube being mechanically deformed by being bent along its length; and

    (d) a sensor for detecting phonon heat transmission through the nanotube.
