Increased power density in modern microelectronics has led to thermal management challenges which can cause degradation in performance and reliability. In many high-power electronic devices, the power consumption and heat removal are…
In this book chapter we provide the definition of "Simulating Nanoscale Heat Transport", broadly regarded as modeling heat conduction beyond Fourier's law. We primarely focus on incoherent transport, which is dominated by scattering between…
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…
Heat transport by acoustic phonons in 2D materials is fundamentally different from that in 3D crystals because the out-of-plane phonons propagate in a unique way that strongly depends on tension and bending rigidity. Since in-plane and…
Two-dimensional materials have unusual phonon structures due to the presence of flexural (out-of-plane) modes. Although molecular dynamics simulations have been extensively used to study heat transport in such materials, conventional…
Thermal properties in the metal/graphene (Gr) systems are analyzed by using an atomistic phonon transport model based on Landauer formalism and first-principles calculations. The specific structures under investigation include chemisorbed…
We study heat transport in a one-dimensional chain of a finite number $N$ of identical cells, coupled at its boundaries to stochastic particle reservoirs. At the center of each cell, tracer particles collide with fixed scatterers,…
The temperature and volume dependences of the thermal conductivity of solid Kr(1-x)Xe(x)solution are analyzed within the model in which heat is transferred by mobile low-frequency phonons; above the phonon mobility edge this is done by…
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…
Suitably superimposed grey-medium solutions of the Boltzmann transport equation (BTE) provide a simple yet accurate description of non-grey quasiballistic heat conduction in transient thermal grating experiments. Recent applications of…
We perform molecular dynamics (MD) simulations with phonon spectral analysis aiming at understanding the two dimensional (2D) thermal transport in suspended and supported graphene. Within the framework of equilibrium MD simulations, we…
The understanding of heat transport in nonequilibrium thermodynamics is an important research frontier, which is crucial for implementing novel thermodynamic devices, such as heat engines and refrigerators. The convection, conduction, and…
We present a general framework for studying strongly coupled radiative and conductive heat transfer between arbitrarily shaped bodies separated by sub-wavelength distances. Our formulation is based on a macroscopic approach that couples our…
One central challenge in understanding phonon thermal transport is a lack of experimental tools to investigate mode-based transport information. Although recent advances in computation lead to mode-based information, it is hindered by…
To develop effective thermal management strategies for GaN transistors, it is essential to accurately predict the device junction temperature. Since the width of the heat generation in the devices is comparable to phonon mean free paths of…
The thermal conductivity of monolayer graphene is an outstanding challenge with no consensus reached on its exact value and length convergence so far. We consider four-phonon scattering, phonon renormalization, and an exact solution to…
A semi-implicit Lax-Wendroff kinetic scheme is developed for hydrodynamic phonon transport in solid materials based on the Boltzmann transport equation under the double relaxation time approximation, in which both the normal and resistive…
The microscale thermal transport properties of $\alpha$RDX are believed to be major factors in the initiation process. In this study we present a thorough examination of phonon properties which dominate energy storage and transport in…
The thermal conductance by phonons of a quasi-one-dimensional solid with isotope or defect scattering is studied using the Landauer formalism for thermal transport. The conductance shows a crossover from localized to Ohmic behavior, just as…
We compute the transient dynamics of phonons in contact with high energy "hot" charge carriers in 12 polar and non-polar semiconductors, using a first-principles Boltzmann transport framework. For most materials, we find that the decay in…
