Lattice thermal conductivity of silicon from empirical interatomic potentials
Abstract
We present calculations of the lattice thermal conductivity of silicon that incorporate several commonly used empirical models of the interatomic potential. Second- and third-order force constants obtained from these potentials are used as inputs to an exact iterative solution of the inelastic phonon Boltzmann equation, which includes the anharmonic three-phonon scattering as well as isotopic defect and boundary scattering. Comparison of the calculated lattice thermal conductivity with the experiment shows that none of these potentials provides satisfactory agreement. Calculations of the mode Gr\"uneisen parameters and the linear thermal expansion coefficient help elucidate the reasons for this. We also examine a set of parameters for one of these empirical potentials that produces improved agreement with both the measured lattice thermal conductivity and the thermal expansion data.

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.
