In this paper, we have studied thermal transport of three auxetic carbon crystals: cis-C, trans-C and hin-C for short, and their strain responses by performing first-principles calculations.

More strikingly, κ of trans-C (cis-C) anomalously increases with tensile strain up to 7% (6%) with maximum κ of almost 7 (5) times larger than the unstrained value. The abnormal strain dependent κ are attributed to the dominant role of the enhancement of phonon lifetime under stretching, which can be further explained from the unique atomic structure of the main chain of polydiacetylene in trans-C and cis-C. The weakening of phonon anharmonicity is reflected by the enhancement of root mean-square displacement values. The reported giant augmentation of κ may inspire intensive research on auxetic carbon crystals as potential materials for emerging nanoelectronic devices.},
