Role of phonon dispersion in studying phonon mean free paths in skutterudites
Experimental thermal conductivity of bulk materials are often modeled using Debye approximation together with functional forms of relaxation time with fitting parameters. While such models can fit the temperature dependence of thermal conductivity of bulk materials, the Debye approximation leads to...
