First-principles calculation of lattice thermal conductivity in crystalline phase change materials: GeTe, Sb2Te3, and Ge2Sb2Te5

Davide Campi, Giorgia Fugallo, Lorenzo Paulatto

Thermal transport is a key feature for the operation of phase change memory devices which rest on a fast and reversible transformation between the crystalline and amorphous phases of chalcogenide alloys upon Joule heating. In this paper we report on the ab ...

Thermal Conductivity of Graphene and Graphite: Collective Excitations and Mean Free Paths

Nicola Marzari, Andrea Cepellotti, Giorgia Fugallo, Lorenzo Paulatto

We characterize the thermal conductivity of graphite, monolayer graphene, graphane, fluorographane, and bilayer graphene, solving exactly the Boltzmann transport equation for phonons, with phononphonon collision rates obtained from density functional pertu ...
