Lattice thermal conductivity of Bi, Sb, and Bi-Sb alloy from first principles

Lattice thermal conductivity of Bi, Sb, and Bi-Sb alloy from first principles

Using first principles, we calculate the lattice thermal conductivity of Bi, Sb, and Bi-Sb alloys, which are of great importance for thermoelectric and thermomagnetic cooling applications. Our calculation reveals that the ninth-neighbor harmonic and anharmonic force constants are significant; accord...
