Understanding the design rules to obtain materials that enable a tight control of phonon transport over broad range frequencies would aid major developments in thermoelectric energy harvesting, heat management microelectronics, and information communication technology.

Furthermore, molecular dynamics simulations conductivity ( κ ) GBF increased by 15%–56% respect to number density compared nonfunctionalized graphene substrate. This increase in attributed enhanced in‐plane conduction GBF, resulting from simultaneous between and...
