Phonon and Carrier Transport in Semiconductors from First Principles:

Thesis advisor: David Broido === We present fundamental studies of phonon and electron transport in semiconductors. First principles density functional theory (DFT) is combined with exact numerical solutions of the Boltzmann transport equation (BTE) for phonons and electrons to calculate various tra...
