The Role of the Third Dimension in Searching Majorana Fermions in -RuCl via Phonons

Sai Mu, Kiranmayi D. Dixit, Xiaoping Wang +12

Understanding phonons in -RuCl is critical to analyze the controversy around the observation of the half-integer thermal quantum Hall effect. While many studies have focused…

Success and breakdown of the T-matrix approximation for phonon-disorder scattering

S. Thébaud, C. A. Polanco, L. Lindsay +1

We examine the validity of the widely used T-matrix approximation for treating phonon-disorder scattering by implementing an unfolding algorithm that allows simulation of disorder…

Minimum and maximum conductance of a thin film layer bridged interface: the role of anharmonicity and layer thickness

Jingjie Zhang, Rouzbeh Rastgarkafshgarkolaei, Carlos A. Polanco +4

We study the role of anharmonicity at interfaces with an added intermediate layer designed to facilitate interfacial phonon transport. Our results demonstrate that while in the har…

Phonon-mediated thermal transport at exponentially mass-graded interfaces: A computational study

Rouzbeh Rastgarkafshgarkolaei, Jingjie Zhang, Carlos A. Polanco +3

We numerically investigate thermal transport at solid-solid interfaces with graded intermediate layers whose masses vary exponentially from one side to the other. Using Non-Equilib…

Dislocation-induced thermal transport anisotropy in single-crystal group-III nitride films

Bo Sun, Georg Haunschild, Carlos Polanco +4

Dislocations, one-dimensional lattice imperfections, are common to technologically important materials such as III-V semiconductors, and adversely affect heat dissipation in e.g.,…

Antisite pairs suppress the thermal conductivity of BAs

Qiang Zheng, Carlos A. Polanco, Mao-Hua Du +4

BAs was predicted to have an unusually high thermal conductivity at room temperature of 2000WmK, comparable to that of diamond. However, the experimentally me…
