Abstract
The mapping of long-wavelength phonons is important to understand and manipulate the thermal transport in multilayered structures, but it remains a long-standing challenge due to the collective behaviors of phonons. In this study, an experimental demonstration of mapping the long-wavelength phonons in an alloyed Al0.1Ga0.9As/Al0.9Ga0.1As superlattice system is reported. Multiple strategies to filter out the short- to mid-wavelength phonons are used. The phonon mean-free-path-dependent thermal transport properties directly demonstrate both the suppression effect of the ErAs nanoislands and the contribution of long-wavelength phonons. The contribution from phonons with mean free path longer than 1 μm is clearly demonstrated. A model based on the Boltzmann transport equation is proposed to calculate and describe the thermal transport properties, which depicts a clear physical picture of the transport mechanisms. This method can be extended to map different wavelength phonons and become a universal strategy to explore their thermal transport in various application scenarios.

Abstract
Recently, metal sulfides have begun to receive attention as potential cost-effective materials for thermoelectric applications beyond optoelectronic and photovoltaic devices. Herein, based on a comparative analysis of the structural and transport properties of 2D PbSnS2 and 1D PbSnS3, we demonstrate that the intrinsic effects that govern the low lattice thermal conductivity (κL) of these sulfides originate from the combination of the low dimensionality of their crystal structures with the stereochemical activity of the lone-pair electrons of cations. The presence of weak bonds in these materials, responsible for phonon scattering, results in inherently low κL of 1.0 W/m K in 1D PbSnS3 and 0.6 W/m K in 2D PbSnS2 at room temperature. However, the nature of the thermal transport is quite distinct. 1D PbSnS3 exhibits a higher thermal conductivity with a crystalline-like peak at low temperatures, while 2D PbSnS2 demonstrates glassy thermal conductivity in the entire temperature range investigated. First-principles density functional theory calculations reveal that the presence of antibonding states below the Fermi level, especially in PbSnS2, contributes to the very low κL. In addition, the calculated phonon dispersions exhibit very soft acoustic phonon branches that give rise to soft lattices and very low speeds of sounds.

Abstract
The covalent bonding framework of crystalline single-bonded cubic AsN, recently synthesized under high pressure and high temperature conditions in a laser-heated diamond anvil cell, is here studied by means of density functional theory calculations and compared to single crystal X-ray diffraction data. The precise localization of the nonbonding electron lone pairs and the determination of their distances and orientations are related to the presence of characteristic structural motifs and space regions of the unit cell dominated by repulsive electronic interactions, with the relative orientation of the electron lone pairs playing a key role in minimizing the energy of the structure. We find that the vibrational modes associated with the expression of the lone pairs are strongly localized, an observation that may have implications for the thermal conductivity of the compound. The results indicate the thermodynamic stability of the experimentally observed structure of AsN above ∼17 GPa, provide a detailed insight into the nature of the chemical bonding network underlying the formation of this compound, and open new perspectives to the design and high pressure synthesis of new pnictogen-based advanced materials for potential applications of energetic and technological relevance.

Abstract
The nature of enhanced photoemission in disordered and amorphous solids is an intriguing question. A point in case is light emission in porous and nanostructured silicon, a phenomenon that is still not fully understood. In this work, we study structural photoemission in heterogeneous cross-linked silicon glass, a material that represents an intermediate state between the amorphous and crystalline phases, characterized by a narrow distribution of structure sizes. This model system shows a clear dependence of photoemission on size and disorder across a broad range of energies. While phonon-assisted indirect optical transitions are insufficient to describe observable emissions, our experiments suggest these can be understood through electronic Raman scattering instead. This phenomenon, which is not commonly observed in crystalline semiconductors, is driven by structural disorder. We attribute photoemission in this disordered system to the presence of an excess electron density of states within the forbidden gap (Urbach bridge) where electrons occupy trapped states. Transitions from gap states to the conduction band are facilitated through electron-photon momentum matching, which resembles Compton scattering but is observed for visible light and driven by the enhanced momentum of a photon confined within the nanostructured domains. We interpret the light emission in structured silicon glass as resulting from electronic Raman scattering. These findings emphasize the role of photon momentum in the optical response of solids that display disorder on the nanoscale.

Abstract
Materials with an extreme lattice thermal conductivity (κl) are indispensable for thermal energy management applications. Layered materials provide an avenue for designing such functional materials due to their intrinsic bonding heterogeneity. Therefore, a microscopic understanding of the crystal structure, bonding, anharmonic lattice dynamics, and phonon transport properties is critically important for layered materials. Alkaline-earth halofluorides exhibit anisotropy from their layered crystal structure, which is strongly determined by axial bond(s), and it is attributed to the large axial ratio (c/a > 2) for CaBrF, CaIF, and SrIF, in which Br/I acts as a rattler, as evidenced from potential energy curves and phonon density of states. The low axial (c/a) ratio leads to relatively isotropic κl values in the BaXF (X = Cl, Br, I) series. MXF (M = Ca, Sr, Ba) compounds exhibit highly anisotropic (a large phonon transport anisotropy ratio of 10.95 for CaIF) to isotropic (a small phonon transport anisotropy ratio of 1.49 for BaBrF) κl values despite their iso-structure. Moreover, ultralow κl (<1 W/m K) values have been predicted for CaBrF, CaIF, and SrIF in the out-of-plane direction due to weak van der Waals (vdWs) bonding. Overall, this comprehensive study on MXF compounds provides insights into designing low κl layered materials with a large axial ratio by fine-tuning out-of-plane bonding from ionic to vdWs bonding.

Abstract
We study the thermoelectric properties of a p-type Bi0.4Sb1.6Te3.4 (BST) composite with Ag nanoparticle-decorated TiO2 microparticles (US-Ag/TiO2). The dispersion of US-Ag/TiO2 particles, synthesized by an ultrasonication (US) method, into the matrix effectively decreases lattice and bipolar thermal conductivity, attributed to the scattering centers formed at nano and micro scales. The electron backscattering diffraction (EBSD) measurements revealed smaller grain sizes within the BST composite when paired with the US-Ag/TiO2 particle dispersion. These reduced grain sizes, alongside nanoparticle-decorated microparticles dispersed throughout the matrix, scatter phonons effectively from long- to short-wavelength phonons and subsequently decrease lattice thermal conductivity. While the power factors of the composites are reduced, significant suppression of lattice and bipolar thermal conductivity has led to an increase in the maximum zT value (1.4 at 325 K) for a 0.9 wt % US-Ag/TiO2 particle dispersion within the BST matrix. This particle dispersion in the BST composite consistently demonstrates a high zT value across an extensive temperature spectrum, leading to an exceptionally high average zTavg value (1.38 up to 400 K), which is superior to the other values from reported BST composites. Thus, this research indicates that the dispersion of nanoparticle-decorated microparticles within a thermoelectric material matrix can significantly improve thermoelectric performance, which has promising implications for practical applications in thermoelectric cooling and sustainable and economical energy harvesting technologies.

Abstract
Thermoelectric materials play a vital role in the pursuit of a sustainable energy system by allowing the conversion of waste heat to electric energy. Low thermal conductivity is essential to achieving high-efficiency conversion. The conductivity depends on an interplay between the phononic and electronic properties of the nonequilibrium state. Therefore, obtaining a comprehensive understanding of nonequilibrium dynamics of the electronic and phononic subsystems as well as their interactions is key for unlocking the microscopic mechanisms that ultimately govern thermal conductivity. A benchmark material that exhibits ultralow thermal conductivity is SnSe. We study the nonequilibrium phonon dynamics induced by an excited electron population using a framework combining ultrafast electron diffuse scattering and nonequilibrium kinetic theory. This in-depth approach provides a fundamental understanding of energy transfer in the spatiotemporal domain. Our analysis explains the dynamics leading to the observed low thermal conductivity, which we attribute to a mode-dependent tendency to nonconservative phonon scattering. The results offer a penetrating perspective on energy transport in condensed matter with far-reaching implications for rational design of advanced materials with tailored thermal properties.

Abstract
Phonon hydrodynamics is an exotic phonon transport phenomenon that challenges the conventional understanding of diffusive phonon scattering in crystalline solids. It features a peculiar collective motion of phonons with various unconventional properties resembling fluid hydrodynamics, facilitating non Fourier heat transport. Hence, it opens up several new avenues to enrich the knowledge and implementations on phonon physics, phonon engineering, and micro and nanoelectronic device technologies. This review aims at covering a comprehensive development as well as the recent advancements in this field via experiments, analytical methods, and state-of-the-art numerical techniques. The evolution of the topic has been realized using both phenomenological and material science perspectives. Further, the discussions related to the factors that influence such peculiar motion, illustrate the capability of phonon hydrodynamics to be implemented in various applications. A plethora of new ideas can emerge from the topic considering both the physics and the material science axes, navigating toward a promising outlook in the research areas around phonon transport in non-metallic solids.

Abstract
Phonon transport in square-cross-section nanowires is studied using spectral Monte Carlo simulations. Our results show the evolution of the different transport regimes described by Lévy statistics as a function of the surface roughness-to-thermal wavelength ratio σ/λ. More precisely, the relationship between the Lévy index γ describing the mean free path distribution Ψ(Λ) and σ/λ is established for the classical diffusive regime, the superdiffusive regime, and the ballistic regime in the nanowire. Besides the conventional superdiffusive regime that is marked by Ψ(Λ) with a single heavy-tailed peak, we reveal an unconventional superdiffusive subregime featuring Ψ(Λ) with sawtooth oscillations when σ/λ∼0.01. Investigation of the direction of propagation of phonons shows a significant narrowing of the angular distribution around the long axis of the nanowire due to the diffuse scattering at rough boundaries when σ/λ>0.1. These results shed light on the transport mechanisms of quasiballistic phonons and will help in nanowire design for specific applications.

Abstract
Chemical reactivity between As and N2, leading to the synthesis of crystalline arsenic nitride, is here reported under high pressure and high temperature conditions generated by laser heating in a diamond anvil cell. Single‐crystal synchrotron X‐ray diffraction at different pressures between 30 and 40 GPa provides evidence for the synthesis of a covalent compound of AsN stoichiometry, crystallizing in a cubic P213 space group, in which each of the two elements is single‐bonded to three atoms of the other and hosts an electron lone pair, in a tetrahedral anisotropic coordination. The identification of characteristic structural motifs highlights the key role played by the directional repulsive interactions between non‐bonding electron lone pairs in the formation of the AsN structure. Additional data indicate the existence of AsN at room temperature from 9.8 up to 50 GPa. Implications concern fundamental aspects of pnictogens chemistry and the synthesis of innovative advanced materials.
