The Role of Thermalizing and Non-thermalizing Walls in Phonon Heat Conduction along Thin Films [PDF]
Phonon boundary scattering is typically treated using the Fuchs-Sondheimer theory, which assumes that phonons are thermalized to the local temperature at the boundary. However, whether such a thermalization process actually occurs and its effect on thermal transport remains unclear.

Tunable Thermal Conduction in Graphane Nanoribbons [PDF]
Graphane and graphene are both two-dimensional materials but of different bonding configurations, which can result in distinct thermal conduction properties. We simulate thermal conduction in graphane nanoribbons (GANRs) using the nonequilibrium Green's function method.
