Reduced phase space of heat-carrying acoustic phonons in single-crystalline InTe

Chalcogenide semiconductors and semimetals are a fertile class of efficient thermoelectric materials, which, in most cases, exhibit very low lattice thermal conductivity κ_{ph} despite lacking a complex crystal structure such as the tetragonal binary compound InTe. Our measurements of κ_{ph}(T) in s...
