Thermal transport in crystals: from the quantum Dyson equation to mesoscopic phonon hydrodynamics
Thermal transport in dielectric, non-magnetic crystals is mediated by quantized lattice vibrations, which drift and interact when driven out of equilibrium by a temperature gradient.
Thermal transport in dielectric, non-magnetic crystals is mediated by quantized lattice vibrations, which drift and interact when driven out of equilibrium by a temperature gradient. This phenomenon can be described at multiple theoretical levels, ranging from fully quantum…
