Violation of the T−1 Relationship in the Lattice Thermal Conductivity of Mg3Sb2 with Locally Asymmetric Vibrations
Most crystalline materials follow the guidelines of T−1 temperature-dependent lattice thermal conductivity (κL) at elevated temperatures. Here, we observe a weak temperature dependence of κL in Mg3Sb2, T−0.48 from theory and T−0.57 from measurements, based on a comprehensive study combining ab initi...
