The shandite family of solids, with hexagonal structure and composition A3M2X2 (A = Ni,Co,Rh,Pd; M = Pb,In,Sn,Tl; X = S,Se), has attracted recent research attention due to promising applications as thermoelectric materials. Herein we…
We use ultrafast x-ray diffraction to quantify the transport of energy in laser-excited nanoscale Au/Ni bilayers. Electron transport and efficient electron-phonon coupling in Ni convert the laser-deposited energy in the conduction electrons…
The half-Heusler (hH) compounds are currently considered promising thermoelectric (TE) materials due to their favorable thermopower and electrical conductivity. Accurate estimates of these properties are therefore highly desirable and…
Ultrawide-bandgap rutile GeO2 is emerging as a promising semiconductor for power electronics, where efficient heat dissipation is essential to suppress self-heating and ensure device reliability. However, the temperature dependence and…
The phonon dispersion, density of states, Gr\"{u}neisen parameters, and the lattice thermal conductivity of single- and multi-layered boron nitride were calculated using first-principles methods. For the bulk {\it h}-BN we also report the…
The temperature dependence of the transport properties of the metallic phase of a frustrated Hubbard model on the hypercubic lattice at half-filling are calculated. Dynamical mean-field theory, which maps the Hubbard model onto a single…
Declining the lattice thermal conductivity in graphene is essential for its thermoelectric applications. In high electron density systems, scatterings of phonons by electrons are no less than the phonon scatterings by other phonons. With…
We report on the temperature dependent electron transport in graphene at different carrier densities $n$. Employing an electrolytic gate, we demonstrate that $n$ can be adjusted up to 4$\times10^{14}$cm$^{-2}$ for both electrons and holes.…
Two-dimensional (2D) metallic systems with intrinsically low lattice thermal conductivity are rare, yet they are of great interest for next-generation energy and electronic technologies. Here, we present a comprehensive first-principles…
Results of in-plane and out-of-plane thermal conductivity measurements on $\rm La_{1.8-x}Eu_{0.2}Sr_xCuO_4$ ($0\leq x\leq0.2$) single crystals are presented. The most characteristic features of the temperature dependence are a pronounced…

We explore the electrical transport and magneto-conductance in quasi two-dimensional strongly correlated ultrathin films of LaNiO$_{3}$ (LNO) to investigate the effect of hetero-epitaxial strain on electron-electron and electron-lattice…
The description of nonequilibrium states of solids in a simplified manner is a challenge in the field of ultrafast dynamics. Here, the phonon thermalization in solids through the three-phonon scatterings is investigated by solving the…

Although the rutile structure of TiO$_2$ is stable at high temperatures, the conventional quasiharmonic approximation predicts that several acoustic phonons decrease anomalously to zero frequency with thermal expansion, incorrectly…

Heat conduction in dielectric crystals originates from the propagation of atomic vibrations, whose microscopic dynamics is well described by the linearized phonon Boltzmann transport equation. Recently, it was shown that thermal…
