Effects of strong phonon anharmonicity of a type-I clathrate Ba$_{\rm 8}$Ga$_{\rm 16}$Sn$_{\rm 30}$ induced by quadruple-well potential of guest atoms were investigated. Phonon transport including coherent interbranch component was analyzed…

We present a detailed study of the charge transport, optical reflectivity, and thermal transport properties of n-type PbSe crystals. A strong scattering, mobility-limiting mechanism was revealed to be at play at temperatures above 500 K.…

In this work, we systematically investigate the lattice thermal conductivity ($\kappa_L$) of LaMoN$_3$ in the $C$2/$c$ and $R$3$c$ phases using first-principles calculations combined with the Boltzmann transport equation. In the $C$2/$c$…

Two-dimensional (2D) ZrS2 monolayer (ML) has emerged as a promising candidate for thermoelectric (TE) device applications due to its high TE figure of merit, which is mainly contributed by its inherently low lattice thermal conductivity.…

To explore the thermal and thermoelectric potential of 2D materials, we study the h-NbN monolayer, which lacks mirror symmetry and features a large acoustic-optical phonon gap and quadratic flexural mode. First-principles calculations and…

We thoroughly investigate the microscopic mechanisms of the thermal transport in orthorhombic \textit{o}-CsCu$_5$S$_3$ by integrating the first-principles-based self-consistent phonon calculations (SCP) with the linearized Wigner transport…

Results of in-plane and out-of-plane thermal conductivity measurements on $\rm La_{1.8-x}Eu_{0.2}Sr_xCuO_4$ ($0\leq x\leq0.2$) single crystals are presented. The most characteristic features of the temperature dependence are a pronounced…

Excitations and scatterings among the quantized lattice vibrations, i.e., phonons, govern the lattice thermal conductivity ($\kappa_l$) in crystalline solids. Therefore, effective modulation of $\kappa_l$ can be achieved through selective…

Many complex crystals show a flattening or even increasing lattice thermal conductivity at high temperatures, which deviates from the traditional 1/T decay trend given by conventional phonon theory. In this work, we predict the thermal…

We report finite-volume simulations of the phonon Boltzmann transport equation (BTE) for heat conduction across the heterogeneous interfaces in SiGe superlattices. The diffuse mismatch model incorporating phonon dispersion and polarization…

The impact of point defects on thermal transport in uranium nitride (UN) is investigated using a MLIP combined with Green-Kubo (GK) and normal mode analysis (NMA) methods over 300-1500 K. In pristine UN, temperature-dependent calculations…

It is textbookly regarded that phonons, i.e., an energy quantum of propagating lattice waves, are the main heat carriers in perfect crystals. As a result, in many crystals, e.g., bulk silicon, the temperature-dependent thermal conductivity…

The anharmonic phonon properties of type-I filled inorganic clathrates Ba8 Ga16 Ge30 and Sr8 Ga16 Ge30 are obtained from the first-principles calculations by considering the temperature-dependent sampling of the potential energy surface and…

The phonon thermal transport properties of eight ternary intermetallic semiconductors are investigated by accounting for higher-order four-phonon scattering, phonon renormalization, and multi-channel thermal transport. The commonly used…

As nanostructured devices become prevalent, interfaces often play an important role in thermal transport phenomena. However, interfacial thermal transport remains poorly understood due to complex physics across a wide range of length scales…

We consider contribution to the phonon scattering, in the temperature range of 1K, by the dislocation kinks pinned in the random stress fields in a crystal. The effect of electron-kink scattering on the thermal transport in the normal…

It has been known for decades that thermal conductivity of insulating crystals becomes proportional to the inverse of temperature when the latter is comparable to or higher than the Debye temperature. This behavior has been understood as…

Low thermal conductivity is favorable for preserving the temperature gradient between the two ends of a thermoelectric material in order to ensure continuous electron current generation. In high-performance thermoelectric materials, there…
