Minimum thermal conductivity in superlattices: A first-principles formalism
The thermal conductivity of silicon-germanium superlattices is computed from density-functional perturbation theory using relaxation times that include both anharmonic and interface roughness effects. A decrease in the group velocity of low-frequency phonons in addition to the interface-disorder-ind...
