Effect of Phonon-Phonon Interactions on Localization
We study the heat current $J$ in a classical one-dimensional disordered chain with on-site pinning and with ends connected to stochastic thermal reservoirs at different temperatures. In the absence of anharmonicity all modes are localized and there is a gap in the spectrum. Consequently $J$ decays exponentially with system size …
