Temperature in a Peierls-Boltzmann Treatment of Nonlocal Phonon Heat Transport
Philip B. Allen, Vasili Perebeinos
In nonmagnetic insulators, phonons are the carriers of heat. If heat enters in a region and temperature is measured at a point within phonon mean free paths of the heated region, b…

Bandstructure and Contact Resistance of Carbon Nanotubes Deformed by the Metal Contact
Roohollah Hafizi, Jerry Tersoff, Vasili Perebeinos
Capillary and van der Waals forces cause nanotubes to deform or even collapse under metal contacts. Using ab-initio bandstructure calculations, we find that these deformations redu…
