AI总结:

本文基于第一性原理自洽声子理论研究了I型Ba$_8$Ga$_16$Sn$_30$笼型化合物的声子非谐性,发现客体模式硬化导致低频晶格热导率随温度升高而增加,并指出该效应可能使纳米结构在高温下引起热导率更大幅度下降。

摘要:

本文研究了由客体原子四重势阱诱导的I型笼型化合物Ba$_{\ m 8}$Ga$_{\ m 16}$Sn$_{\ m 30}$的强声子非谐性效应。利用基于第一性原理的自洽声子(SCP)理论,分析了包含相干支间分量的声子输运,该理论给出了随温度变化的谐和原子间力常数,并通过求解群速度算符的非对角分量进行了计算。通过同时考虑晶格和电子贡献,合理地重现了实验观测到的热导率。通过SCP理论分析,我们发现客体模式的硬化导致在低于框架主导的平坦模式频率(< 40 cm$^{\ m -1}$)的频段内晶格热导率增加,这最终导致总晶格热导率随温度升高呈现缓慢衰减和轻微增加。详细分析表明,低频下晶格热导率的增加归因于:(a) 位于平坦客体模式频率以下的声子模式群速度增加,以及(b) 随着温度升高,位于平坦客体模式与框架模式频率之间的声子模式寿命异常增加。从工程角度来看,这种效应可能导致一种有趣的现象,即在较高温度下,由于纳米结构化导致热导率出现更大的下降。

英文摘要:

Effects of strong phonon anharmonicity of a type-I clathrate Ba$_{\rm 8}$Ga$_{\rm 16}$Sn$_{\rm 30}$ induced by quadruple-well potential of guest atoms were investigated. Phonon transport including coherent interbranch component was analyzed using a first-principles-based self-consistent phonon (SCP) theory that gives temperature-dependent harmonic interatomic force constants and by solving off-diagonal components of group velocity operator. Experimentally observed thermal conductivities have been reasonably reproduced by considering both lattice and electron contributions. Through the analysis with the SCP theory, we found that hardening of guest modes leads to an increase in lattice thermal conductivity at frequencies below those of framework-dominant flat modes (< 40 cm$^{\rm -1}$), which finally results in the slow decay and slight increase in the total lattice thermal conductivity with increasing temperature. Detailed analyses revealed that the increase in lattice thermal conductivity at low frequency is attributed to (a) the increase in group velocities of phonon modes located at frequencies below that of the flat guest modes and (b) abnormal increase in lifetimes of phonon modes located between frequencies of the flat guest and framework modes with increasing temperature. From an engineering point of view, this effect may lead to an intriguing phenomenon, a larger decrease in thermal conductivity due to nanostructuring at higher temperatures.
