Determining Phonon Mean Free Paths from Observations of Quasiballistic Thermal Transport
Abstract
The mean free paths (MFPs) of thermal phonons are mostly unknown in many solids. Recent work indicates that MFPs may be measured using experimental observations of quasiballistic thermal transport, but the precise relationship between the measurements and the MFP distribution remains unclear. Here, we present a method that can accurately reconstruct the MFP distribution from quasiballistic thermal measurements without any assumptions regarding the phonon scattering mechanisms. Our result will enable a substantially improved understanding of thermal transport in many solids, particularly thermoelectrics.

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.
