Maassen van den Brink, A. (author), Dekker, H. (author), TNO Fysisch en Elektronisch Laboratorium (author)The calculation of the Kapitza boundary resistance between dissimilar harmonic solids has since long (Little [Can. J. Phys. 37 (1959) 334]) suffered from a paradox: this resistance erroneously tends to a finite value in the limit of identical solids. We resolve this paradox by calculating temperature differences in the final heat-transporting...article 1996

Maassen van den Brink, A. (author), Dekker, H. (author), TNO Fysisch en Elektronisch Laboratorium (author)A calculation of the Kapitza boundary resistance between harmonic solids has been noted previously (Little, Can. J. Phys. 37 (1959) 334; Leung and Young, Phys. Rev. B 36 (1987) 4973) to lead to apparently paradoxical results in the limit of identical solids: instead of vanishing, the resistance tends to a finite limit. We resolve this paradox by...article 1996
