- W2977597629 abstract "Motivated by recent experiments, we study the variability of the thermal conductance of single dithiolated alkane molecules of varying length connecting two gold electrodes. For this purpose, we examine (i) the influence of the metal-molecule contact and of the electrode orientation on the thermal conductance of straight alkane chains, (ii) the effect of molecule-internal disorder realized through torsional gauche defects and the behavior upon stretching, and (iii) the modifications resulting from temperature-dependent dynamical variations of the geometry. While we analyze the former two aspects with a combination of density functional theory (DFT) and nonequilibrium Green's function (NEGF) methods, in the latter case we use nonequilibrium molecular dynamics (NEMD). Our calculations show the size of the variation of the phonon thermal conductance due to changes in contact geometry, that gauche defects generally reduce the thermal conductance but that they vanish upon stretching of the junction, and that the thermal conductance at elevated temperatures results from an average over many junction configurations, including alkanes with thermally excited gauche defects. Overall we find a good agreement between the DFT-NEGF and NEMD approaches for our room-temperature investigations. This confirms that anharmonic effects do not play a major role in alkane chains containing between four to ten carbon atoms. The phonon heat transport thus proceeds elastically and phase-coherently through these short molecular junctions." @default.
