| Popis: | Through the integration of the power spectral density, we obtain temperature profiles of both multi-segment harmonic and anharmonic systems, showing the presence of an anomalous negative temperature gradient inside the interfacial segment. Via investigating patterns of the power spectral density, we found that the counterintuitive phenomenon comes from the presence of interfacial localized phonon modes. Two out-band localized modes of the harmonic model, which make no contributions to local temperature due to the absence of phonon interactions, result in the concave temperature profile and over-cooling effect. For the anharmonic model, thanks to the phonon-phonon interactions, the localized modes are excited and make considerable contributions to interfacial temperature, which is clearly shown by examining the temperature accumulation function. When anharmonicity is considerably large, the negative temperature gradient is absent since the localized phonon modes are fully mixed. The presence of localized modes are evidently demonstrated by the inverse participation ratio and normal mode analysis for the isolated harmonic model. Comment: 6 pages, 6 figures |
