Interfacial thermal transport with strong system-bath coupling: A phonon delocalization effect

We study the effect of system-bath coupling strength on quantum thermal transport through the interface of two weakly coupled anharmonic molecular chains by using a quantum self-consistent phonon approach. The approach inherently assumes that the two segments (anharmonic molecular chains) are approx...
