1 Mattis, Daniel C.Thermal conductivity and thermodynamics of phonons for an exactly soluble model of disorderWe calculate the exact thermal conductivity and the heat capacity of an insulator for which the lattice dynamics are given by a phonon gas in the presence of frozen-in disorder, in the special case of the "backward-scattering'' model of impurity scattering.Thermal conductivity; Heat capacity; Insulators; Defects; Phonon gas; Backward-scattering model1992-10
2 Liu, FengImpurity mediated absorption continuum in single-walled carbon nanotubesThe authors demonstrate that in single-walled carbon nanotubes, a weak impurity potential can lead to a strong above-gap absorption continuum. The total absorption is enhanced due to the intraband and indirect transitions, as well as plasmon excitations, which are forbidden in perfect nanotubes. Suc...Carbon nanotubes; SWNT; Defects; Impurities; Above-gap; Absorption continuum2007
3 Mattis, Daniel C.Magnetic susceptibilities of finite Ising chains in the presence of defect sitesAny antiferromagnet with zero net magnetic moment exhibits limited response to an external homogeneous magnetic field. This changes dramatically in the presence of defect sites, even those that carry no spin. We examine the excess susceptibilities, longitudinal and transverse, due to one or more d...Antiferromagnets; Defects; Ising chain; Longitudinal field; Transverse field2007-12
