Thermal conductivity and tunable thermal anisotropy of magnetic CrSBr monolayer
Marta Loletti, Alejandro Molina-Sánchez, Juan Sebastián Reparaz +2
We present first-principles calculations of the thermal conductivity, , of monolayer CrSBr, a van der Waals magnetic 2D material. We find a considerable thermal anisotrop…
Quantifying Strain and its Effect on Charge Transport in Ge/Si Core/Shell Nanowires
Aswathi K. Sivan, Nicolas Forrer, Aakash Shandilya +12
Strain engineering in semiconductor nanostructures offers a promising route to optimize electronic and optical properties for advanced quantum technologies. This study explores the…
Unraveling energy flow mechanisms in semiconductors by ultrafast spectroscopy: Germanium as a case study
Grazia Raciti, Begoña Abad, Riccardo Dettori +8
Semiconductor materials are the foundation of modern electronics, and their functionality is dictated by the interactions between fundamental excitations occurring on (sub-)picosec…
Phonon interference effects in GaAs-GaP superlattice nanowires
Chaitanya Arya, Johannes Trautvetter, Jose M. Sojo-Gordillo +8
Fine-tuning the functional properties of nanomaterials is crucial for technological applications. Superlattices, characterized by periodic repetitions of two or more materials in d…
