Directional Phonon Suppression Function as a Tool for the Identification of Ultralow Thermal Conductivity Materials

Boundary-engineering in nanostructures has the potential to dramatically impact the development of materials for high- efficiency conversion of thermal energy directly into electricity. In particular, nanostructuring of semiconductors can lead to strong suppression of heat transport with little degr...
