An ab initio study of multiple phonon scattering resonances in silicon germanium alloys
We have computed phonon scattering rates and density of states in silicon germanium alloys using Green's function calculations and density functional theory. This method contrasts with the virtual crystal approximation (VCA) used in conjunction with Fermi's golden rule, which cannot captur...
