Hydrodynamic Phonon Transport: Past, Present, and Prospect
arXiv:1903.05731
Abstract
The hydrodynamic phonon transport was studied several decades ago for verifying the quantum theory of lattice thermal transport. Recent prediction of significant hydrodynamic phonon transport in graphitic materials shows its practical importance for high thermal conductivity materials and brought a renewed attention. As the study on this topic has been inactive to some extent for several decades, we aim at providing a brief overview of the past studies as well as very recent studies. The topics we discuss in this chapter include the collective motion of phonons, several approaches to solve the Peierls-Boltzmann transport equation for hydrodynamic phonon transport, the role of normal scattering for thermal resistance, and the propagation of second sound. Then, we close this chapter with our perspectives for the future studies and the practical implication of hydrodynamic phonon transport.
