This work introduces a novel framework for analyzing wave propagation in hydro-semiconductors by simultaneously incorporating fractional-order heat conduction, temperature-dependent thermal conductivity, and rotational effects into a unified photo-thermoelastic model. Unlike previous studies that considered these effects separately, the present model couples nonlocal fractional heat transport with variable thermal conductivity in a rotating semiconductor medium. Analytical solutions are obtained using the normal mode method, and numerical results illustrate how fractional derivatives and temperature-dependent conductivity jointly reshape thermal, mechanical, and carrier wave behaviors compared to classical theories. The findings provide new physical insights into nonlocal, memory-driven, and anisotropic transport phenomena in advanced semiconductor systems, which are not captured by conventional thermoelasticity models.

Mechanisms of Heat Transfer
Conduction, accounting for approximately 3% of body heat loss at rest, is the process of exchanging heat between molecules of two materials in direct contact. This can result in both heat loss and gain. For instance, when the body is submerged in water, which conducts heat 20 times more effectively than air, it can either lose or gain significant...
