Phonon wave-packet dynamics at semiconductor interfaces by molecular-dynamics simulation
Abstract
We directly observe phonon wave packets of well-defined frequency and polarization scattering at a coherent semiconductor interface using molecular-dynamics simulations. We find that in the low-frequency limit the transmission coefficients of both longitudinal and transverse acoustic phonons agree well with those predicted by the continuum-level based acoustic mismatch model. However, the transmission coefficients rapidly decrease close to the cutoff frequency, a result that can be understood within a simple one-dimensional discrete atomic-chain model. We also find that the transmission coefficient for transverse acoustic phonons depends strongly on the relative orientation of the polarization and the Si–Si bonds in the diamond lattice structure.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
