Anisotropic Thermal Conductivity

We study the thermal conductivity of monolayer, bilayer, and bulk titanium trisulphide (TiS 3 ) by means of an iterative solution of the Boltzmann transport equation based on ab-initio force constants. Our results show that the thermal conductivity of these layers is anisotropic and highlight the importance of enforcing the fundamental symmetries in order to accurately describe the quadratic dispersion of the flexural phonon branch near the center of the Brillouin zone.

Boltzmann Transport

Many methods have been developed to predict the thermal conductivity of the material. Heat transport is complex and it contains many unknown variables, which makes the thermal conductivity hard to define. The iterative solution of Boltzmann transport equation (BTE) can make the numerical calculation and the nanoscale study of heat transfer possible. Here, we review how to apply the iterative method to solve BTE and many linear systems. This method can compute a sequence of progressively accurate iteration to approximate the solution of BTE.
