The role of data in modern materials science becomes more valuable and accurate when effects such as electron-phonon coupling and anharmonicity are included, providing a more realistic representation of finite-temperature material behavior.…

Predicting the critical temperature $T_c$ of new superconductors is a notoriously difficult task, even for electron-phonon paired superconductors for which the theory is relatively well understood. Early attempts by McMillan and Allen and…

High entropy ceramics are highly promising as next generation thermal barrier coatings due to their unique disorder structure, which imparts ultra-low thermal conductivity and good high temperature stability. Unlike traditional ceramic…

A way to increase the Scanning Thermal Microscope (SThM) sensitivity in the harmonic 3w mode is to heat the probe with an AC current sufficiently high to generate a coupling between the AC and the DC signals. We detail in this paper how to…

The crystal structure and phonon dynamics of pentacene is computed with the Quasi Harmonic Lattice Dynamics (QHLD) method, based on atom-atom potential. We show that two crystalline phases of pentacene exist, rather similar in thermodynamic…
