the lower limit to lattice thermal conductivity reached when phonon lifetimes are as short as half a vibration period, estimated from atomic density and sound speeds.

In materials science, minimum thermal conductivity refers to the lower limit to lattice thermal conductivity reached when phonon lifetimes are as short as half a vibration period, estimated from atomic density and sound speeds. This meaning comes from Cahill (1992) in Physical Review B.[1]
