Germanium isotope effect induced guest rattling and cage distortion in clathrates
Intermetallic clathrates are materials characterized by a large cage structure where guest atoms can move anharmonically, providing these materials exotic thermoelectric properties. Unfortunately, the dynamical and atomic nature of the rattling phonons, and their interactions with the electronic str...
