The ability to probe nanoscale heat flow in a material is often limited by lack of spatial resolution. Here, we use a diamond-nanocrystal-hosted nitrogen-vacancy centre attached to the apex of a silicon thermal tip as a local temperature…
The phonon thermal conductivity in diamond nanowires (DNW) is studied by molecular dynamics simulation. It is found that the thermal conductivity in narrower DNW is lower and does not show obvious temperature dependence; a very small value…
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…
Understanding the impact of lattice imperfections on nanoscale thermal transport is crucial for diverse applications ranging from thermal management to energy conversion. Grain boundaries (GBs) are ubiquitous defects in polycrystalline…
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…
Nanostructured materials exhibit low thermal conductivity because of the additional scattering due to phonon-boundary interactions. As these interactions are highly sensitive to the mean free path (MFP) of a given phonon mode, MFP…
Diamond is studied by path integral molecular dynamics simulations of the atomic nuclei in combination with a tight-binding Hamiltonian to describe its electronic structure and total energy. This approach allows us to quantify the influence…

Understanding heat transport in organic semiconductors is of fundamental and practical relevance. Therefore, we study the lattice thermal conductivities of a series of (oligo)acenes, where an increasing number of rings per molecule leads to…
A complex approach phonon quantum discrete model (PQDM) was developed to describe dynamics, kinetics and statistics of phonons in carbon nanostructures with zero-chirality of both zig-zag and armchair geometry. The model allows include into…

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…
Heat transport in bulk materials is well described using the Debye theory of 3D vibrational modes (phonons) and the acoustic match model. However, in cryogenic nanodevices, phonon wavelengths exceed device dimensions, leading to confinement…
We study the low-temperature heat transport in clean two-leg spin ladder compounds coupled to three-dimensional phonons. We argue that the very large heat conductivities observed in such systems can be traced back to the existence of…
