It is textbookly regarded that phonons, i.e., an energy quantum of propagating lattice waves, are the main heat carriers in perfect crystals. As a result, in many crystals, e.g., bulk silicon, the temperature-dependent thermal conductivity…
Thermal properties of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are of fundamental interest owing to exceptional heat conduction properties. Recent studies have suggested that their thermal conductivities can be enhanced by multiple factors such…
We study the two-flavor color superconductivity of low-temperature quark matter in the vicinity of chiral phase transition in the quark-meson model where the interactions between quarks are generated by pion and sigma exchanges. Starting…
We consider the phonon contribution to the bulk viscosities $\zeta_1, \zeta_2$ and $\zeta_3$ of a cold relativistic superfluid. We assume the low temperature $T$ regime and that the transport properties of the system are dominated by the…
The thermal conductivity and thermoelectric power of a single carbon nanotube were measured using a microfabricated suspended device. The observed thermal conductivity is more than 3000 W/K m at room temperature, which is two orders of…
The effect of sample size and surface roughness on the phonon thermal conductivity $\kappa_p$ of Nd$_2$CuO$_4$ single crystals was studied down to 50 mK. At 0.5 K, $\kappa_p$ is proportional to $\sqrt{A}$, where $A$ is the cross-sectional…
Motivated by recent experimental findings, we study the contribution of a quantum critical optical phonon branch to the thermal conductivity of a paraelectric system. We consider the proximity of the optical phonon branch to transverse…
In neutral cold quark matter that is sufficiently dense that the strange quark mass M_s is unimportant, all nine quarks (three colors; three flavors) pair in a color-flavor locked (CFL) pattern, and all fermionic quasiparticles have a gap.…
We study the intrinsic scattering of phonons by a general quantum degree of freedom, i.e. a fluctuating "field" $Q$, which may have completely general correlations, restricted only by unitarity and translational invariance. From the induced…
Porous materials provide a large surface to volume ratio, thereby providing a knob to alter fundamental properties in unprecedented ways. In thermal transport, porous nanomaterials can reduce thermal conductivity by not only enhancing…
We have measured temperature and magnetic field dependences of the thermal conductivity along the c-axis, kc, and that along the [110] direction, k110, of CuB2O4 single crystals in zero field and magnetic fields along the c-axis and along…
In this Letter, we present investigations of thermal transport in (LaMnO$_3$)$_n$/(SrMnO$_3$)$_n$ superlattices (SLs) with SL periods $\Lambda=2n$ between $2$ and $12$ unit cells. The analysis of the experimental data clearly reveals a…
While phonons and electrons are well-established heat carriers in solids, photons are typically associated only with radiative transfer between surfaces. Yet for over 70 years, theorists have speculated that thermal photons could also…
Transparent oxide materials, such as $CuAlO_{2}$, a p-type transparent conducting oxide (TCO), have recently been studied for high temperature thermoelectric power generators and coolers for waste heat. TCO materials are generally low cost…
We present a new method for predicting effective thermal conductivity ($\kappa_{\textrm{eff}}$) in materials, informed by ${ab\,initio}$ material property simulations. Using the Boltzmann transport equation in a Self-Adjoint Angular Flux…
Recently, it was proposed that phonons are specularly reflected below about 0.5 K in ordinary single-crystal samples of high-T_c cuprates, and that the low-temperature thermal conductivity should be analyzed by fitting the data up to 0.5 K…
Nanostructured semiconducting alloys obtain ultra-low thermal conductivity as a result of the scattering of phonons with a wide range of mean-free-paths (MFPs). In these materials, long-MFP phonons are scattered at the nanoscale boundaries…
We calculate the phase diagram of color and electrically neutral quark matter in weak equilibrium using the NJL model at high baryon densities. We extend previous analyses by taking into account the possibility of formation of pseudoscalar…
We present heat capacity, electrical and thermal transport measurements of kagome metals $A$V$_3$Sb$_5$ ($A$ = K, Rb, Cs). In all three compounds, development of short-range charge fluctuations above the charge density wave (CDW) transition…
In addition to its exotic electronic properties graphene exhibits unusually high intrinsic thermal conductivity. The physics of phonons - the main heat carriers in graphene - was shown to be substantially different in two-dimensional (2D)…
