摘要：

We use the Debye model to investigate the phonon scattering mechanisms in BaxREyCo4Sb12 double-filled skutterudites. Filling two types of guest atoms (barium and rare-earth elements) into the voids of skutterudite introduces additional phonon point defect scattering from the extra mass fluctuation at the void site, and additional phonon resonant scattering by the fillers with different vibrational frequencies, leading to significant reduction in the lattice thermal conductivity.
