The heat dissipation issue has now become one of the most important bottlenecks for power
electronics due to the rapid increase in power density and working frequency. Towards the …

High-throughput computational materials design is an emerging area of materials science.
By combining advanced thermodynamic and electronic-structure methods with intelligent …

Improving the thermal management of small-scale devices requires develo** materials
with high thermal conductivities. The semiconductor boron arsenide (BAs) is an attractive …

ShengBTE is a software package for computing the lattice thermal conductivity of crystalline
bulk materials and nanowires with diffusive boundary conditions. It is based on a full iterative …

Conventional optical components are limited to size scales much larger than the wavelength
of light, as changes to the amplitude, phase and polarization of the electromagnetic fields …

Lattice thermal conductivities of zincblende-and wurtzite-type compounds with 33
combinations of elements are calculated with the single-mode relaxation-time approximation …

Defect scattering is well known to suppress thermal transport. In this study, however, we
perform both molecular dynamics and Boltzmann transport equation calculations, to …

The thermal conductivities of β-Ga 2 O 3 single crystals along four different crystal directions
were measured in the temperature range of 80–495 K using the time domain …

Using first principles calculations, we predict the thermal conductivity of the two-dimensional
materials black phosphorene and blue phosphorene. Black phosphorene has an …

We have calculated the thermal conductivities (κ) of cubic III-V boron compounds using a
predictive first principles approach. Boron arsenide is found to have a remarkable room …
