Conductivity tensor is an important concept in materials, this work studies conductivity tensors in cylindrical quantum wires with parabolic potential in the presence of two external fields, a linearly polarized electromagnetic wave, and a laser field. This work is also only considered for the case of electron-acoustic phonon scattering. Research results are obtained by using quantum kinetic equations for the carrier system in a quantum wire. The conductivity tensor is calculated by solving the quantum kinetic equation of the system, which is a function of the external field frequency, the external field amplitude, the temperature of the helium, and parameters specific to the quantum wire. Results will also be examined and plotted for quantum wire GaAs / GaAsAl.

Abstract Boron arsenide (BAs) is an ultrahigh-thermal-conductivity material with special phonon-phonon scattering behaviors. At ambient pressure, the bunching of acoustic phonon branches in BAs is believed to result in a small phase space for three-phonon scattering. Density functional theory predicts that this acoustic phonon bunching effect is sensitive to pressure and leads to an unusual pressure dependence of thermal conductivity. To explore this physics, we measure the thermal conductivity of BAs from 0 to 25 GPa using time-domain thermoreflectance in a diamond anvil cell. We characterized two BAs samples with ambient thermal conductivities of 350 and 480 W m-1 K-1. Our experiments show that the thermal conductivity of both samples depends weakly on pressure from 0 to 25 GPa. We attribute the weak pressure dependence of the thermal conductivity of BAs to the weak pressure dependence of total phonon-phonon scattering rates. Our experimental results are consistent with DFT predictions that three-phonon scattering rates increase from 0 to 25 GPa, while four-phonon scattering rates decrease.

Based on the quantum kinetic equation (QKE) for electron, we have theoretically studied the theory of photo-stimulated Ettingshausen effect in a one-dimensional cylindrical quantum wire (CQW). The strong electromagnetic wave (EMW) [Formula: see text] plays a role as photo-stimulation source. We obtain the analytic expressions for the kinetic tensors [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and the Ettingshausen coefficient (EC) in the CQW with the dependence on the amplitude and the energy of EMW, the CQW radius, the magnetic field and the temperature for two cases: optical phonon and acoustic phonon. The results are numerically evaluated and graphed for GaAs/AlGaAs CQW model. It is shown that we observe the cyclotron resonance and magneto-phonon resonance effect while surveying EC in terms of magnetic field (with and without EMW) and EMW energy, considered the electron-optical phonon scattering. In case of electron-acoustic phonon scattering, the oscillation of EC is obtained with the transition between low Landau levels (LLs). We also clarify the impact of quantum size effect (QSE) on EC by surveying the influence of EC on the radius of CQW.
