The Quantum ESPRESSO backend code for thirdorder.py was mainly developed by Antti J. Karttunen (antti.j.karttunen@iki.fi), who also contributed the ESPRESSO test data for ShengBTE and helped enhance the support for second-order force constants generated with ESPRESSO.
Mr. Guangzhao Qin contributed a patch to provide more detailed output from ShengBTE and estimate the effect of boundary scattering.
Dr. Youdi Kuang implemented time reversal symmetry.
ShengBTE has also received contributions from
