What is the effect of specific heat capacity on thermal conductivity especially in semiconductors?

07 July 2018 0 1K Report

I know that with increasing temperature, thermal conductivity decreases. How does thermal diffusivity and specific heat capacity contribute to this. I need an explanation backed with references. Thanks
