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…
In spite of their importance for understanding phonon transport phenomena in thin films and polycrystalline solids, the effects of boundary roughness scattering on phonon specularity and coherence are poorly understood because there is no…
Despite the ubiquity of applications of heat transport across nanoscale interfaces, including integrated circuits, thermoelectrics, and nanotheranostics, an accurate description of phonon transport in these systems remains elusive. Here we…
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.…
In order to provide the best possible performance, modern infrared photodetector designs necessitate extremely precise modeling of the superlattice absorber region. We advance the Rode's method for the Boltzmann transport equation in…
Nonequilibrium phonon transport driven by nanoscale hotspot heating in silicon device layers governs heat dissipation in advanced microelectronics and underscores the need for a better microscopic understanding of such processes. Yet the…
We solve a Schrodinger equation for inelastic quantum transport that retains full quantum coherence, in contrast to previous rate or Boltzmann equation approaches. The model Hamiltonian is the zero temperature 1d Holstein model for an…
Ultrafast thermal transport in low-dimensional materials challenges traditional diffusive models due to reduced scattering, strong electron-phonon coupling, and pronounced non-equilibrium effects. To address these complexities, we extend…
The intrinsic charge transport of stanene is investigated by using density function theory and density function perturbation theory coupled with Boltzmann transport equations from first principles. The accurate Wannier interpolations are…
We present a conceptually simple method for treating electron-phonon scattering and phonon limited mobilities. By combining Green's function based transport calculations and molecular dynamics (MD), we obtain a temperature dependent…
We demonstrate a first-principles method to study magnetotransport in materials by solving the Boltzmann transport equation (BTE) in the presence of an external magnetic field. Our approach employs ab initio electron-phonon interactions and…
The radiative transfer equation (RTE) models the transport of light inside photonic scattering samples such as paint, foam and tissue. Analytic approximations to solve the RTE fail for samples with strong absorption and dominant anisotropic…
We present a neutron scattering study of phonons in single crystals of (Pb$_{0.5}$Sn$_{0.5}$)$_{1-x}$In$_x$Te with $x=0$ (metallic, but nonsuperconducting) and $x=0.2$ (nonmetallic normal state, but superconducting). We map the phonon…
In this paper, a finite-volume discrete unified gas kinetic scheme (DUGKS) based on the non-gray phonon transport model is developed for multiscale heat transfer problem with arbitrary temperature difference. Under large temperature…
Exotic nondiffusive heat transfer regimes such as the second sound, where heat propagates as a damped wave at speeds comparable to those of mechanical disturbances, often occur at cryogenic temperatures (T) and nanosecond timescales in…
Steady-state thermal transport in nanostructures with dimensions comparable to the phonon mean-free-path is examined. Both the case of contacts at different temperatures with no internal heat generation and contacts at the same temperature…
Simulations (e.g. Zhou et al., Phys. Rev. B 79, 115201 (2009)) show nonlocal effects of the ballistic/diffusive crossover. The local temperature has nonlinear spatial variation not contained in the local Fourier law…
We study uncertainty quantification for a Boltzmann-Poisson system that models electron transport in semiconductors and the physical collision mechanisms over the charges. We use the stochastic Galerkin method in order to handle the…
This paper is concerned with three-dimensional acoustic wave scattering in two-layer media, where the two homogeneous layers are separated by a locally perturbed plane featuring an axially symmetric perturbation. A fast novel boundary…
The complex interaction between transverse acoustic (TA) phonon, transverse optic (TO) phonon and polar nano-domains (PND) in the relaxor ferroelectric KTa1-xNbxO3 (KTN) is studied by means of high resolution diffuse and inelastic neutron…
