Abstract
We examine the thermal conductivity of a one-dimensional phi4 lattice with strong on-site harmonic potential. The expression for the thermal conductivity in terms of different parameters is derived from the effective phonon theory. Numerical calculations using nonequilibrium molecular dynamics are compared with the predictions of the effective phonon theory and the theory of the Peierls-Boltzmann transport equation. It is found that the numerical results are consistent with the prediction of the effective phonon theory in the intermediate parameter range and approach the predictions of Peierls-Boltzmann transport theory in the strongly pinned limit.
