Abstract :
We present a new lateral thermal conductivity model which include the new relaxation time expressions for phonon scattering considering detailed information of the phonon dispersion. The effect of phonon dispersion on the three-phonon process is considered in detail. The experimental data of the temperature dependence of lateral thermal conductivity of silicon crystal thin films fits well using these expressions.
