We study theoretically the electronic entropy and specific heat in diffusive superconductor-normal metal-superconductor (SNS) Josephson junctions. In particular, we consider the influence of non-idealities occurring in an actual experiment,…
A unified understanding of interfacial thermal transport is missing due to the complicated nature of interfaces which involves complex factors such as interfacial bonding, interfacial mixing, surface chemistry, crystal orientation,…
The acoustic mismatch model and the diffuse mismatch model have been widely used to predict the thermal interface conductance. However, the acoustic mismatch model (diffuse mismatch model) is based on the hypothesis of a perfectly smooth…

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…
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…
Understanding the interplay between various design strategies (for instance, bonding heterogeneity and lone pair induced anharmonicity) to achieve ultralow lattice thermal conductivity ($\kappa_l$) is indispensable for discovering novel…
Thermal conductivity $\kappa$ of both suspended and supported graphene has been studied by using molecular dynamics simulations. Obvious length dependence is observed in $\kappa$ of suspended single-layer graphene (SLG), while $\kappa$ of…

In this study, we employ molecular simulations to investigate the enhancement in thermal conductance at the solid/liquid interface in the presence of a meniscus reported previously (Klochko et al., Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 25(4):3298-3308,…
In semiconductor superlattices, when Bragg oscillating electrons interact with an input electromagnetic field, frequency multiplication is possible. An ideal superlattice has a purely antisymmetric voltage current response and can thus…
