Thermal Conductivity and Tunable Thermal Anisotropy of Magnetic CrSBr Monolayer
Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.Top (left) and side view of single‐layer CrSBr (right). Phonon transport is strongly anisotropic, with a lattice thermal conductivity along the a‐lattice vector which is almost twice the one along the b‐vector (κxx$\kappa _{xx}$ = 1.8 κyy$\kappa _{yy}$). ABSTRACT We present first‐principles calculations of the thermal conductivity, κ${\bm \kappa }$, of
