Motivated by the recent heat transport experiments in 2D antiferromagnets, such as La$_2$CuO$_4$, where the exchange coupling $J$ is larger than the Debye energy $\Theta_{\rm D}$, we discuss different types of relaxation processes for…

Despite the importance of high thermal conductance (i.e. low thermal resistance) of metal contacts to thermal management of graphene devices, prior reported thermal conductance of metal/graphene interfaces are all relatively low, only 20-40…

We use suspended graphene electromechanical resonators to study the variation of resonant frequency as a function of temperature. Measuring the change in frequency resulting from a change in tension, from 300 K to 30 K, allows us to extract…

Understanding thermal transport in 2D materials and especially in graphene is a key challenge for the design of heat management and energy conversion devices. The high sensitivity of measured transport properties to structural defects,…

We propose systems that allow a tuning of the phonon transmission function T($\omega$) in graphene nanoribbons by using C$^{13}$ isotope barriers, antidot structures, and distinct boundary conditions. Phonon modes are obtained by an…

We conduct first-principles theoretical studies to investigate the temperature-dependent phonon properties of orthorhombic SrZrO$_3$ (SZO) perovskite. Our calculations include the quasiharmonic approximation, in which we explored mode…

We discuss the possible cooling of different phonon modes via three wave mixing interactions of vibrational and optical modes. Since phonon modes exhibit a variety of dispersion relations or frequency spectra with diverse spatial…

In a molecular junction (MJ) which connects two electrical leads, electron-phonon coupling has significant effects on the transport properties. However, the MJ is not thermally isolated and the phonons can be coupled to another thermal…

We examine thermal transport in graphene supported on SiO2 using molecular dynamics simulations. Coupling to the substrate reduces the thermal conductivity (TC) of supported graphene by an order of magnitude, due to damping of the flexural…

We investigate the phonon thermal conductance of graphene regarding the graphene sheet as the large-width limit of graphene strips in the ballistic limit. We find that the thermal conductance depends weakly on the direction angle $\theta$…

Twisted bilayer graphene (tBLG) is two graphene layers placed on top of each other with a twist angle, making it has tunable thermal properties. In this paper, we report an analysis of thermal conductivity ($\kappa$), phonon density of…

We have studied the thermal properties of bended graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) using nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations. The thermal conductivity of bended GNRs shows a non-monotonous relationship with the bending angle, due to the…

The low-temperature thermal conductivity in polycrystalline graphene is theoretically studied. The contributions from three branches of acoustic phonons are calculated by taking into account scattering on sample borders, point defects and…

Using nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations, we study the heat conduction in graphene flakes composed by two regions. One region is mass-loaded and the other one is intact. It is found that the mass interface between the two regions…

Thermodynamic properties of graphene bilayers are studied by path-integral molecular dynamics (PIMD) simulations, considering quantization of vibrational modes and anharmonic effects. Bilayer graphene has been studied at temperatures…

We study thermal rectification in single-walled carbon nanohorns (SWNHs) by using non-equilibrium molecular dynamics (MD) method. It is found that the horns with the bigger top angles show larger asymmetric heat transport due to the larger…

We present a computational method and apply it to study phonon relaxation in face-centered cubic (fcc) nickel (Ni). The phonons are excited beyond their thermal equilibrium population, and the relaxation behavior is analyzed as a function…

Josephson tunnel junctions are proposed as efficient phase-tunable thermal rectifiers. The latter exploit the strong temperature dependence of the superconducting density of states and phase-dependence of heat currents flowing through…

In this work, we study the thermal energy transport properties of twin graphene, which has been introduced recently as a new two-dimensional carbon nano structure. The thermal conductivity is investigated using non-equilibrium molecular…
