Outline of Final Research Achievements

Phonon-phonon interactions, phonon lifetimes, and lattice thermal conductivities of a variety of crystals were investigated using first-principles anharmonic lattice dynamics calculations. The lattice thermal conductivities of 101 different crystals of zincblende-, wurtzite-, and rocksalt-types were systematically calculated. It was found that scatterings among phonons are governed by the detailed combinations of phonon energies, momentums, and phonon-phonon interaction strengths. This showed difficulty of prediction of lattice thermal conductivity by simple phonon models. We made an investigation of prediction of lattice thermal conductivities using a machine learning approach and this successfully predicted unknown low lattice thermal conductivity materials, which indicates further studies are necessary to understand lattice thermal conductivity mechanism from the viewpoint of chemical bondings.
