Recent studies reveal that four-phonon scattering is generally important in determining thermal conductivities of solids. However, these studies have been focused on materials where thermal conductivity $\kappa$ is dominated by acoustic…
Transition metal nitrides are a fascinating class of hard coating material that provide an excellent platform for investigating superconductivity and fundamental electron phonon interactions. In this work the structural morphological and…

In this work, using the scattering matrix method, we have investigated the transmission coefficients and the thermal conductivity in a double-bend waveguide structure. The transmission coefficients show strong resonances due to the…
Excitonic quasi-particles, excitons/trions/bi-excitons, and their coupling with phonons and charge carriers play a crucial role in controlling the optical properties of atomically thin semiconducting 2D materials. In this work, we…
Theoretical calculations of carrier transport in single-walled carbon nanotubes are compared with recent experiments. Carrier-phonon scattering is accounted for using the deformation potential approximation. Comparing with experiments, a…
Very recently, a new graphene-like crystalline, hole-free, 2D-single-layer carbon nitride C3N, has been fabricated by polymerization of 2,3-diaminophenazine and used to fabricate a field-effect transistor device with an on-off current ratio…

Thermal transport acts as a powerful tool for studying the excitations and physical properties of insulators, where a charge gap suppresses electronic conduction. Recently, the thermal Hall effect has been observed across various materials,…
Quantum phonon transport through benzene and alkane chains amide-linked with single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is studied within the level of density functional theory. The force constant matrices are obtained from standard quantum…
The electronic and vibrational properties of 2D materials are dramatically altered by the formation of a moir\'e superlattice. The lowest-energy phonon modes of the superlattice are two acoustic branches (called phasons) that describe the…
Bulk AlN possesses high thermal conductivity due to long phonon mean-free-paths, high group velocity, and long lifetimes. However, the thermal transport scenario becomes very different in a thin AlN film due to phonon-defect and…
In this work, we investigate the microscopic mechanisms of anharmonic lattice dynamics and thermal transport in lead-free halide double perovskite Cs2AgBiBr6 from first principles. We combine self-consistent phonon calculations with bubble…
Tin monoxide is an interesting two-dimensional material because of the rare oxide semiconductor with bipolar conductivity. However, the lower room temperature mobility limits the applications of SnO in the future. Thus, we systematically…
We report electrical transport experiments using the phenomenon of electrical breakdown to perform thermometry that probe the thermal properties of individual multi-walled nanotubes. Our results show that nanotubes can readily conduct heat…
In ballistic transport, heat carriers such as phonons travel through the solid without any scattering or interaction. Therefore, there is no temperature gradient in the solid, which seems to transport the heat without getting heated itself.…
We theoretically investigate the thermal boundary conductance across metal-nonmetal interfaces in the presence of the electron-phonon coupling not only in metal but also at interface. The thermal energy can be transferred from metal to…

Oscillations of conductance observed in strong magnetic fields are a striking manifestation of the quantum dynamics of charge carriers in solids. The large charge carrier density in typical metals sets the scale of oscillations in both…
