We present a study of thermal conductivity, $\kappa$, in undoped and doped strontium titanate in a wide temperature range (2-400 K) and detecting different regimes of heat flow. In undoped SrTiO$_{3}$, $\kappa$ evolves faster than cubic…
Octahedral tilting is a fundamental structural distortion in perovskites, governing key phenomena such as lattice stabilizing, soft phonon dynamics, group-theoretical analysis, phase transitions, ferroelectricity, and even for tunable…
Cubic perovskite oxides are emerging high-mobility transparent conducting oxides (TCOs), but Ge-based TCOs had not been known until the discovery of metastable cubic SrGeO$_3$. $0.5 \times 0.4 \times 0.2$-mm$^3$ large single crystals of the…
Topological phonon states in crystalline materials have attracted significant research interests due to their importance for fundamental physical phenomena, yet their implication on phonon thermal transport remains largely unexplored. Here,…
A fundamental understanding of phonon transport in stanene is crucial to predict the thermal performance in potential stanene-based devices. By combining first-principle calculation and phonon Boltzmann transport equation, we obtain the…
Indium iodides, which adopt layered or molecular-crystal-like arrangements depending on composition, are expected to exhibit low lattice thermal conductivity because of their heavy constituent atoms and weak In-I bonding. In this work, we…

Accurately predicting carrier mobility in strongly anharmonic solids necessitates a precise characterization of lattice dyndamics as a function of temperature. We achieve consistency with experimental electron mobility data for bulk…
Using the phonon Boltzmann transport formalism and density functional theory based calculations, we show that stanene has a low thermal conductivity. For a sample size of 1$\times$1 $\mu$m$^{2}$ ($L\times W$), the lattice thermal…
