The traditional picture of heat transfer in solids by atomic vibrations, also known as phonons, involves phonons scattering with each other like gas particles and is commonly referred to as the phonon gas model (PGM). This physical picture…
In this work we study the energy transport in a one-dimensional system composed of two dissimilar Frenkel-Kontorova lattices connected by a time-modulated coupling and in contact with two heat reservoirs operating at different temperature…
Phonon coherence elucidates the propagation and interaction of phonon quantum states within superlattice, unveiling the wave-like nature and collective behaviors of phonons. Taking MoSe$_2$/WSe$_2$ lateral heterostructures as a model…
Heat transport at nanoscales in semiconductors is investigated with a statistical method. The Boltzmann Transport Equation (BTE) which characterize phonons motion and interaction within the crystal lattice has been simulated with a Monte…
We report finite-volume simulations of the phonon Boltzmann transport equation (BTE) for heat conduction across the heterogeneous interfaces in SiGe superlattices. The diffuse mismatch model incorporating phonon dispersion and polarization…
This work investigates the impact of device length on thermal conductivity in periodic and aperiodic superlattices (SLs). While it is well known that thermal conductivity in aperiodic SLs exhibits a weaker dependence on device length…
Interstitial defects are inevitably present in doped semiconductors that enable modern-day electronic, optoelectronic or thermoelectric technologies. Understanding of stability of interstitials and their bonding mechanisms in the silicon…
While the vibrational thermodynamics of materials with small anharmonicity at low temperatures has been understood well based on the harmonic phonons approximation; at high temperatures, this understanding must accommodate how phonons…
Phonons, the quanta of lattice vibrations, are primary heat carriers for semiconductors and dielectrics. The demand of effective phonon manipulation urgently emerges, because the thermal management is crucial for the ongoing development of…
Measurements of the resistive properties and the lattice parameters of a (LaVO3)[6 unit cells]/(SrVO3)[1 unit cell] superlattice between 10K and room temperature are presented. A low temperature metallic phase compatible with a Fermi liquid…
Layering two-dimensional van der Waals materials provides unprecedented control over atomic placement, which could enable tailoring of vibrational spectra and heat flow at the sub-nanometer scale. Here, using spatially-resolved ultrafast…
We investigated how dimensionality affects heat transport in Si-Ge superlattices by computing the thermal conductivity of planar superlattices and arrays of Ge nanowires and nanodots embedded in Si. We studied superlattices with $\sim$10 nm…
Nanostructured superlattices have been the focus of many researchers due to their physical and manipulatable properties. They aim to find promising materials for new electronic and thermoelectric devices. In the present study, we…
The electronic and vibrational properties of 2D materials are dramatically altered by the formation of a moir\'e superlattice. The lowest-energy phonon modes of the superlattice are two acoustic branches (called phasons) that describe the…
There has been much interest in semiconductor superlattices because of showing very low thermal conductivities. This makes them especially suitable for applications in a variety of devices for thermoelectric generation of energy, heat…
The process of heat conduction in one-dimensional lattice with on-site potential is studied by means of numerical simulation. Using discrete Frenkel-Kontorova, $\phi$--4 and sinh-Gordon we demonstrate that contrary to previously expressed…
Semiconductor superlattices have been extensively investigated for thermoelectric applications, to explore the effects of compositions, interface structures, and lattice strain environments on the reduction of thermal conductivity, and…
A universal mechanism of superconductivity applicable to ``low temperature'' and ``high temperature'' superconductors is proposed in this paper. With this model of mechanism experimental facts of superconductors can be qualitatively…
In semiconductors almost all heat is conducted by phonons (lattice vibrations), which is limited by their quasi-particle lifetimes. Phonon-phonon interactions represent scattering mechanisms that produce thermal resistance. In…
The tin-selenide and tin-sulfide classes of materials undergo multiple structural transitions under high pressure leading to periodic lattice distortions, superconductivity, and topologically non-trivial phases, yet a number of…
