The propagation of the transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM) waves in an effectively two-dimensional (2D) isotropic medium is described by Bergmann's equation of acoustics. We develop a dynamical formulation of the…
We investigate the nanoscale mechanisms determining lattice thermal conductivity (LTC) of pristine and W-doped MX$_2$-M$^\prime$X$^\prime_2$ transition metal dichalcogenide heterobilayers from first principles, using the exact solution of…
For over a century, x-ray scattering has been the most powerful tool for determining the equilibrium structure of crystalline materials. Deviations from perfect periodicity, for example due to thermal motion of the atoms, reduces the…
The paper considers a coupled system of linear Boltzmann transport equations (BTE), and its Continuous Slowing Down Approximation (CSDA). This system can be used to model the relevant transport of particles used e.g. in dose calculation in…
We consider a short-range deformation potential scattering model of electron-acoustic phonon interaction to calculate the resistivity of an ideal metal as a function of temperature (T) and electron density (n). We consider both 3D metals…
The phonon thermal conductivity of semiconducting periodic solids can be obtained using the lattice dynamics calculations along with the Boltzmann transport equation and with input from density functional theory calculations. These…
The thermal transport properties of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are re-investigated using the iterative solution of the Boltzmann transport equation by including four-phonon scattering. Using only three-phonon scattering, the…
Efficient ab initio computational methods for the calculation of thermoelectric transport properties of materials are of great avail for energy harvesting technologies. The BoltzTraP code has been largely used to efficiently calculate…
Dislocations can greatly enhance the figure of merit of thermoelectric materials by prominently reducing thermal conductivity. However, the evolution of phonon modes with different energies when they propagate through a single dislocation…
Carrier mobility in bulk semiconductors is typically governed by electron-phonon (e-ph) scattering. In nanostructures, spatial confinement can lead to significant surface scattering, lowering mobility and breaking the spatial homogeneity…
A semi-implicit Lax-Wendroff kinetic scheme is developed for hydrodynamic phonon transport in solid materials based on the Boltzmann transport equation under the double relaxation time approximation, in which both the normal and resistive…
Hydrodynamic phonon transport was recently predicted as an important regime for phonon transport in graphitic materials. Many of past studies on hydrodynamic phonon transport have focused on the cases where the hydrodynamic regime…
The relaxation time approximation (RTA) of the kinetic Boltzmann equation is likely the simplest window into the microscopic properties of collective real-time transport. Within this framework, we analytically compute all retarded two-point…
In this paper, we study one-dimensional linear Schr\"odinger equations with multiple moving potentials, known as transfer charge models. Focusing on the non-self-adjoint setting that arises in the study of solitons, we systematically…
We present a new code to evaluate thermoelectric and electronic transport properties of extended systems with a maximally-localized Wannier function basis set. The semiclassical Boltzmann transport equations for the homogeneous infinite…
In [1] an integrable quantum model was introduced and a class of its cyclic representations was proven to define lattice regularizations of the Sine-Gordon model. Here, we analyze general cyclic representations of this integrable quantum…
We report ab-inito density functional theory calculation of phonons in cubic phase of ZrW2O8 in the entire Brillouin zone and identify specific anharmonic phonons that are responsible for large negative thermal expansion (NTE) in terms of…
Peierls-Boltzmann transport equation, coupled with third-order anharmonic lattice dynamics calculations, has been widely used to model lattice thermal conductivity ($\kappa_{l}$) in bulk crystals. However, its application to materials with…
Using the semiclassical quantum Boltzmann equation (QBE), we numerically calculate the DC transport properties of bilayer graphene near charge neutrality. We find, in contrast to prior discussions, that phonon scattering is crucial even at…
The acoustic, optic, and surface polar optic phonons are the three important intrinsic and extrinsic phononic modes that increasingly populate graphene on a substrate with rising temperatures; the coupling of which with photoexcited hot…
