Efficient simulation of multidimensional phonon transport using energy-based variance-reduced Monte Carlo formulations
We present a Monte Carlo method for obtaining solutions of the Boltzmann equation to describe phonon transport in micro- and nanoscale devices. The proposed method can resolve arbitrarily small signals (e.g., temperature differences) at small constant cost and thus represents a considerable improvem...
