Bismuth is one of the rare materials in which second sound has been experimentally observed. Our exact calculations of thermal transport with the Boltzmann equation predict the occurrence of this Poiseuille phonon flow between $approx$ 1.5 K and $approx$ 3.5 K, in sample size of 3.86 mm and 9.06 mm, in consistency with the experimental observations. Hydrodynamic heat flow characteristics are given for any temperature: heat wave propagation length, drift velocity, Knudsen number. We discuss a Gedanken-experiment allowing to assess the presence of a hydrodynamic regime in any bulk material.

In the hydrodynamic regime, phonons drift with a nonzero collective velocity under a temperature gradient, reminiscent of viscous gas and fluid flow. The study of hydrodynamic phonon transport has spanned over half a century but has been mostly limit
ed to cryogenic temperatures (~1 K) and more recently to low-dimensional materials. Here, we identify graphite as a three-dimensional material that supports phonon hydrodynamics at significantly higher temperatures (~100 K) based on first-principles calculations. In particular, by solving the Boltzmann equation for phonon transport in graphite ribbons, we predict that phonon Poiseuille flow and Knudsen minimum can be experimentally observed above liquid nitrogen temperature. Further, we reveal the microscopic origin of these intriguing phenomena in terms of the dependence of the effective boundary scattering rate on momentum-conserving phonon-phonon scattering processes and the collective motion of phonons. The significant hydrodynamic nature of phonon transport in graphite is attributed to its strong intralayer sp2 hybrid bonding and weak van der Waals interlayer interactions. As a boundary-sensitive transport regime, phonon hydrodynamics opens up new possibilities for thermal management and energy conversion.
In this paper, we report on the investigation of (1) the transport properties of multi-carriers in semi-metal Bi and (2) the spin conversion physics in this semimetal system in a ferrimagnetic insulator, yttrium-iron-garnet. Hall measurements reveal
that electrons and holes co-exist in the Bi, with electrons being the dominant carrier. The results of a spin conversion experiment corroborate the results of the Hall measurement; in addition, the inverse spin Hall effect governs the spin conversion in the semimetal/insulator system. This study provides further insights into spin conversion physics in semimetal systems.
Interactions of charge carriers with lattice vibrations, or phonons, play a critical role in unconventional electronic transport of metals and semimetals. Recent observations of phonon-mediated collective electron flow in bulk semimetals, termed elec
tron hydrodynamics, present new opportunities in the search for strong electron-electron interactions in high carrier density materials. Here we present the general transport signatures of such a second-order scattering mechanism, along with analytical limits at the Eliashberg level of theory. We study electronic transport, using $ab$ $initio$ calculations, in finite-size channels of semimetallic ZrSiS and TaAs$_2$ with and without topological band crossings, respectively. The order of magnitude separation between momentum-relaxing and momentum-conserving scattering length-scales across a wide temperature range make both of them promising candidates for further experimental observation of electron hydrodynamics. More generally, our calculations show that the hydrodynamic transport regime can be realized in a much broader class of anisotropic metals and does not, to first order, rely on the topological nature of the bands. Finally, we discuss general design principles guiding future search for hydrodynamic candidates, based on the analytical formulation and our $ab$ $initio$ predictions. We find that systems with strong electron-phonon interactions, reduced electronic phase space, and suppressed phonon-phonon scattering at temperatures of interest are likely to feature hydrodynamic electron transport. We predict that layered and/or anisotropic semimetals composed of half-filled $d$-shells and light group V/VI elements with lower crystal symmetry are ideal candidates to observe hydrodynamic phenomena in future.
An interplay between the increase in the number of carriers and the decrease in the scattering time is expected to result in a saturation of the in-plane resistivity, $rho_{ab}$, in graphite above room temperature. Contrary to this expectation, we ob
serve a pronounced increase in $rho_{ab}$ in the interval between 300 and 900 K. We provide a theory of this effect based on intervalley scattering of charge carriers by high-frequency, graphene-like optical phonons.
We extend recent textit{ab initio} calculations of the electronic band structure and the phonon dispersion relations of rhombohedral GeTe to calculations of the density of phonon states and the temperature dependent specific heat. The results are com
pared with measurements of the specific heat. It is discovered that the specific heat depends on hole concentration, not only in the very low temperature region (Sommerfeld term) but also at the maximum of $C_p/T^3$ (around 16 K). To explain this phenomenon, we have performed textit{ab initio} lattice dynamical calculations for GeTe rendered metallic through the presence of a heavy hole concentration ($p$ $sim$ 2$times$ 10$^{21}$ cm$^{-3}$). They account for the increase observed in the maximum of $C_p/T^3$.
