Unusual heat flow revealed with first principles theoretical approaches
Phonons determine the thermal properties of materials as well as mediating electronic transport. Our research has focused on the physics of phonons, with an emphasis on developing ab initio theoretical descriptions of thermal properties and phonon thermal transport.  This parameter-free theory has yielded excellent agreement with the measured thermal conductivities of a wide range of materials, validating its predictive capability and contributing insight into the nature of heat flow.  Examples of such
