While thermal anisotropicity is a desirable materials property for many applications, including transverse thermoelectrics and thermal management in electronic devices, it remains elusive in practical natural compounds. In this work, we…
In semiconductors almost all heat is conducted by phonons (lattice vibrations), which is limited by their quasi-particle lifetimes. Phonon-phonon interactions represent scattering mechanisms that produce thermal resistance. In…
We derive expressions for energy flow in terms of lattice normal mode coordinates and energy transmission involving reduced group velocities. With a version of Landauer formula appropriate for lattice dynamic approach, the phonon…
In the present communication we consider the one-dimensional (1D) isotopically disordered lattice with the harmonic potential. Our analytical method is adequate for any 1D lattice where potential energy can be presented as the quadratic…
We study the lattice thermal conductivity of two-dimensional (2D) pentagonal systems, such as penta-silicene and penta-germanene. Penta-silicene has been recently reported, while the stable penta-germanene, belonging to the same group IV…
The phonon thermal conductivity of semiconducting periodic solids can be obtained using the lattice dynamics calculations along with the Boltzmann transport equation and with input from density functional theory calculations. These…
We report on evaluation of lattice thermal conductivity of GeTe/Sb$_{2}$Te$_{3}$ superlattice (SL) by using femtosecond coherent phonon spectroscopy at various lattice temperatures. The time-resolved transient reflectivity obtained in…
Knowledge of lattice anharmonicity is essential to elucidate distinctive thermal properties in crystalline solids. Yet, accurate \textit{ab initio} investigations of lattice anharmonicity encounter difficulties owing to the cumbersome…
The time-honored Allen-Feldman theory of heat transport in glasses is generally assumed to predict a finite value for the thermal conductivity, even if it neglects the anharmonic broadening of vibrational normal modes. We demonstrate that…
Two-dimensional (2D) materials have garnered considerable attention as an emerging thermoelectric (TE) material owing to their unique density of state (DOS) near the Fermi level. We investigate the TE performance of Janus $\beta$-PdXY…
We here numerically investigate the heat transport behavior in a one-dimensional lattice with a soft-type (ST) anharmonic interparticle interaction. It is found that with the increase of system's temperature, while the introduction of ST…
Understanding thermal transport in layered transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) crystals is crucial for a myriad of applications exploiting these materials. Despite significant efforts, several basic thermal transport properties of TMDs…
Efficient and precise calculations of thermal transport properties and figure of merit, alongside a deep comprehension of thermal transport mechanisms, are essential for the practical utilization of advanced thermoelectric materials. In…
We calculate the lattice-driven in-plane $(\kappa_{\parallel})$ and out-of-plane $(\kappa_{\perp})$ thermal conductivities of Bi$_2$Se$_3$ bulk, and of films of different thicknesses, using the Boltzmann equation with phonon scattering…
Diminution of the thermal conductivity is a crucial aspect in thermoelectric research. We report a systematic and significant reduction of the cross-plane thermal conductivity in a model system consisting of DC sputtered TiNiSn and HfNiSn…
We study the role of anharmonicity at interfaces with an added intermediate layer designed to facilitate interfacial phonon transport. Our results demonstrate that while in the harmonic limit the bridge may lower the conductance due to…
The impact of lattice type, period, porosity and thickness of two-dimensional silicon phononic crystals on the reduction of thermal conductance by coherent modification of phonon dispersion is investigated using the theory of elasticity and…
We use a magnetothermal resistance method to measure lattice thermal conductivity of pure single crystal metals over a wide range of temperatures. Large transverse magnetic fields are applied to suppress electronic thermal conduction. The…
By way of the nonequilibrium Green's function simulations and first principles calculations, we report that borophene, a single layer of boron atoms that was fabricated recently, possesses an extraordinarily high lattice thermal conductance…
This paper consists of two parts. The first part proposes a new methodological framework within which the heat conductivity in 1D lattices can be studied. The total process of heat conductivity is decomposed into two contributions where the…
