Quasi-Ballistic Thermal Conduction in 6H-SiC
Zhe Cheng, Weifang Lu, Jingjing Shi +9
The minimization of electronics makes heat dissipation of related devices an increasing challenge. When the size of materials is smaller than the phonon mean free paths, phonons tr…
How do defects limit the ultrahigh thermal conductivity of BAs? A first principles study
Mauro Fava, Nakib Haider Protik, Chunhua Li +6
The promise enabled by BAs high thermal conductivity in power electronics cannot be assessed without taking into account the reduction incurred when doping the material. Using firs…
Electron-phonon drag enhancement of transport properties from fully coupled \textit{ab initio} Boltzmann formalism
Nakib H. Protik, Boris Kozinsky
We present a combined treatment of the non-equilibrium dynamics and transport of electrons and phonons by carrying out \textit{ab initio} calculations of the fully coupled electron…
Coupled transport of phonons and carriers in semiconductors: A case study of n-doped GaAs
Nakib H. Protik, David A. Broido
We present a general coupled electron-phonon Boltzmann transport equations (BTEs) scheme designed to capture the mutual drag of the two interacting systems. By combining density fu…
Phonon thermal transport in 2H, 4H and 6H silicon carbide from first principles
Nakib Haider Protik, Ankita Katre, Lucas Lindsay +3
Silicon carbide (SiC) is a wide band gap semiconductor with a variety of industrial applications. Among its many useful properties is its high thermal conductivity, which makes it…
