Abstract

Effect of a crystalline-amorphous interface on heat conduction has been studied using atom-istic simulations of a silicon system. System with amorphous silicon was created using the bond-switching Monte Carlo simulation method and heat conduction near room temperature was studied by molecular dynamics simulations of this system.
