ABSTRACTComplex Metallic Alloys (CMAs) are metallic solids of high structural complexity, consisting of large numbers of atoms in their unit cells. Consequences of this structural complexity are manifold and give rise to a variety of exciting physical properties. The impact that such structural complexity may have on the lattice dynamics will be discussed. The surprising dynamical flexibility of Tsai-type clusters with the symmetry breaking central tetrahedron will be addressed for Zn6Sc, while in the Ba-Ge-Ni clathrate system the dynamics of encaged Ba guest atoms in the surrounding Ge-Ni host framework is analysed with respect to the experimentally evidenced strong reduction of lattice thermal conductivity. For both systems experimental results from neutron scattering are analyzed and interpreted on atomistic scale by means of ab initio and molecular dynamics simulations, resulting in a picture with the respective structural building blocks as the origin of the peculiarities in the dynamics.

Silicon's material properties, have been studied extensively because of its technological significance in a variety of industries, including microelectronics. Yet, questions surrounding the phonon relaxation times in silicon continue to linger.1,2 Previous theoretical works3-5 have generated qualitative expressions for phonon relaxation times, however these approaches require fitting parameters that cannot be determined reliably. This paper first discusses implementation issues associated with using the Green-Kubo method in molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. We compare various techniques used in similar works and discusses several implementation issues that have arisen in the literature. We then describe an alternative procedure for analyzing the normal modes of a crystal to extract phonon relaxation times. As an example material we study bulk crystalline silicon using equilibrium MD simulations and lattice dynamics. The environment dependent interatomic potential6 is used to model the interactions and frequency dependent phonon properties are extracted from the MD simulations.
