AI总结:

本文通过揭示赝角动量守恒对手性声子热输运的隐藏选择规则,在螺旋碲中实现了5.30倍的热导率增强,并指出对称性分辨的赝角动量守恒是预测和调控手性晶体热导率的有效途径。

摘要:

赝角动量(PAM)是手性声子光学选择规则的基础,但它是否也约束热激发的有限q声子-声子散射一直未得到解决。我们表明,旋转或螺旋本征相位守恒对立方非简谐顶点施加了PAM残差规则,揭示了热输运的隐藏选择规则。在具有螺旋对称性的碲(一个精确平台)中,将该规则作为投影算子应用于第一性原理玻尔兹曼输运,保持谱和力常数不变,但去除了约三分之二的运动学允许三重态,抑制了电阻性Umklapp弛豫,并在300 K时将晶格热导率提高了5.30倍,在高达400 K时仍保持五倍以上。进一步的手性晶体基准测试表明,显式的本征相位组织可将计算的晶格热导率提高约24%,与报道的第一性原理低估实验值相当。这些结果确立了PAM守恒作为手性声子热输运的非简谐选择原理,并识别出对称性分辨的PAM守恒是预测和控制手性晶体及纳米尺度声子学中热导率的途径。

英文摘要:

Pseudo-angular momentum (PAM) underlies optical selection rules for chiral phonons, but whether it also constrains thermally populated finite-wave-number phonon-phonon scattering has remained unresolved. We show that rotational or screw eigenphase conservation imposes a PAM residue rule on cubic anharmonic vertices, revealing a hidden selection rule for heat transport. In screw-symmetric helical Te, an exact platform, implementing this rule as a projector in first-principles Boltzmann transport leaves spectra and force constants unchanged but removes roughly two thirds of kinematically allowed triplets, suppresses resistive Umklapp relaxation, and enhances lattice thermal conductivity by a factor of 5.30 at 300 K, remaining above fivefold up to 400 K. A bulk chiral-crystal benchmark further shows that explicit eigenphase organization can increase the calculated lattice thermal conductivity by about 24%, comparable to the reported first-principles underestimation of experiment. These results establish PAM conservation as an anharmonic selection principle for chiral-phonon heat transport and as a fundamental principle to guide the prediction and control of thermal conductivity in chiral crystals and nanoscale phononics.
