In conventional insulating magnets, heat is carried by magnons and phonons. In contrast, when the magnets harbor a quantum spin liquid state, emergent quasiparticles from the fractionalization of quantum spins can carry heat. Here, we…

The room temperature thermal diffusivity of high T$_c$ materials is dominated by phonons. This allows the scattering of phonons by electrons to be discerned. We argue that the measured strength of this scattering suggests a converse…

A polycrystalline sample of the MgB_2 superconductor was investigated by measurements of the electrical resistivity, the thermopower and the thermal conductivity in the temperature range between 1.8K and 300K in zero magnetic field. The…

We study thermal transport through Pt nanowires that bridge planar contacts as a function of wire length and vibrational frequency of the contacts. When phonons in the contacts have lower average frequencies than those in the wires thermal…

We describe nonlinear phonon-thermoelectric devices where charge current and electronic and phononic heat currents are coupled, driven by voltage and temperature biases, when phonon-assisted inelastic processes dominate the transport. Our…

Coherent wave effects of thermal phonons hold promise of transformative opportunities in thermal transport control but remain largely unexplored due to the small wavelength of thermal phonons, typically below a few nanometers. This small…

First-principles calculations are employed to investigate the phonon transport of BiCuOSe. Our calculations reproduce the lattice thermal conductivity of BiCuOSe. The calculated gruneisen parameter is 2.4~2.6 at room temperature, a fairly…

We have investigated the structural, electronic, mechanical, phononic, and superconducting properties of the Zr$_2$Ir compound with a body-centered tetragonal crystal structure using first-principles calculations. Our analysis reveals that…

We investigate phonon transport in perovskite strontium titanate (SrTiO3) which is stable above its phase transition temperature (~105 K) by using first-principles molecular dynamics and anharmonic lattice dynamics. Unlike conventional…

In the quest for stable 2D arsenic phases, four different structures have been recently claimed to be stable. We show that, due to phonon contributions, the relative stability of those structures differs from previous reports and depends…

The propagation of a heat pulse in a single crystal and across grain boundaries (GBs) is simulated using a concurrent atomistic-continuum method furnished with a coherent phonon pulse model. With a heat pulse constructed based on a…

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…

We investigate the thermal conductivity of the classical Heisenberg spin chain coupled to a variety of phonon systems using a Green-Kubo approach as well as coupling to heat reservoirs. The decay of energy current correlations is power law…

The temperature-induced orthorhombic to cubic phase transition in Li2C2 is a prototypical example of a solid to solid phase transformation between an ordered phase, which is well described within the phonon theory, and a dynamically…

This paper investigates thermal transport in a nanocomposite system "porous silicon matrix filled with ionic liquid". First, the thermal conductivity and heat capacity of two imidazolium and one ammonium ionic liquids were evaluated using…

Tuning thermal transport in nanostructures is essential for many applications, such as thermal management and thermoelectrics. Nanophononic metamaterials (NPM) have shown great potential for reducing thermal conductivity by introducing…

A temperature-dependent approach involving Green-Kubo equilibrium atomic and spin dynamics (GKEASD) is reported to assess phonon and magnon thermal transport processes accounting for phonon-magnon interactions. Using body-center cubic (BCC)…

Using a novel many-body approach, we report lattice dynamical properties of UO2 and PuO2 and uncover various contributions to their thermal conductivities. Via calculated Grueneisen constants, we show that only longitudinal acoustic modes…

Problems of heat transport are ubiquitous to various technologies such as power generation, cooling, electronics, and thermoelectrics. In this paper we advocate for the application of the quantum self-consistent reservoir method, which is…

We study the vertical structure of the transition layer between an accretion disc and corona in the context of the existence of two-phase medium in thermally unstable regions. The disc is illuminated by hard X-ray radiation and satisfies…
