Abstract

Ab initio simulation of phonon spectra and lattice thermal conductivity of monomolecular layers of transition metal dichalcogenides is performed. Size and temperature dependence of lattice thermal conductivity are analyzed and the difference between transition metal dichalcogenides is explained.

Keywords: dichalcogenide, phonon, thermal conductivity, transition metal, monolayer
