First-principles characterization of thermal conductivity in LaPO4-based alloys
Anees Pazhedath, Lorenzo Bastonero, Nicola Marzari +1
Alloys based on lanthanum phosphate (LaPO) are often employed as thermal barrier coatings, due to their low thermal conductivity and structural stability over a wide temperat…
Viscous heat backflow and temperature resonances in extreme thermal conductors
Jan Dragašević, Bogdan Rajkov, Michele Simoncelli
We demonstrate that non-diffusive, fluid-like heat transport, such as heat backflowing from cooler to warmer regions, can be induced, controlled, and amplified in extreme thermal c…
Vibrational and thermal properties of amorphous alumina from first principles
Angela F. Harper, Kamil Iwanowski, William C. Witt +2
Amorphous alumina is employed ubiquitously as a high-dielectric-constant material in electronics, and its thermal-transport properties are of key relevance for heat management in e…
Crossover from Boltzmann to Wigner thermal transport in thermoelectric skutterudites
Enrico Di Lucente, Michele Simoncelli, Nicola Marzari
Skutterudites are crystals with a cage-like structure that can be augmented with filler atoms ("rattlers"), usually leading to a reduction in thermal conductivity that can be explo…
