The experimentally observed order-of-magnitude reduction in the thermal conductivity along the growth axis of (GaAs)_n/(AlAs)_n (or n x n) superlattices is investigated theoretically for (2x2), (3x3) and (6x6) structures using an accurate…

We report on a possibility of efficient engineering of the acoustic phonon energy spectrum in multishell tubular structures produced by a novel high-tech method of self-organization of nano- and micro-architectures. The strain-driven…
The thermal, mechanical, and electronic performance of atomically thin semiconductors is governed by their low-energy phonons, yet the impact of atomic-scale disorder on these modes remains poorly understood. Here, we report the first…
Phonon anharmonicity is ubiquitous in real materials and is crucial for understanding thermal properties and phase stability. In this work, we show that anharmonic phonon modes can be obtained by maximizing their vibration stability during…
We present a comprehensive theoretical treatment of the effect of electron-phonon interactions in molecular transistors, including both quantal and classical limits and we study both equilibrated and out of equilibrium phonons. We present…

It has been known for decades that a magnetic field can deflect phonons as they flow in response to a thermal gradient, producing a thermal Hall effect. Several recent experiments have revealed ratios of the phonon Hall conductivity to the…

We show the existence of Fano resonances in the context of near-field radiative heat transfer, which enable the strong suppression and enhancement of the spectral heat flux at specific wavelengths. This is demonstrated by making use of the…

A Fano resonance arises from the pathway interference between discrete and continuum states, playing a fundamental role in many branches of physics, chemistry and material science. Here, we introduce the concept of a laser-assisted Fano…
Two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) materials have extraordinary thermal properties due to the effect of quantum confinement, making them promising for thermoelectric energy conversion and thermal management in microelectronic devices.…
Interface impedes heat flow in heterostructures and the interfacial thermal resistance (ITR) has become a critical issue for thermal dissipation in electronic devices. To explore the mechanism leading to the ITR, in this work, the dynamic…

Phononic crystals and acoustic meta-materials are used to tailor phonon and sound propagation properties by facilitating artificial, periodic structures. Analogous to photonic crystals, phononic band gaps can be created, which influence…
