Abstract The realization of reversible thermal conductivity through ferromagnetic ordering can improve the heat management and energy efficiency in magnetic materials-based devices. VI$_{3}$, as a new layered ferromagnetic semiconductor, exhibits a structural phase transition from monoclinic ($C2/m$) to rhombohedral ($R\bar{3}$) phase as temperature decreases, making it a suitable platform to investigate thermal switching in magnetic phase transition materials. This work reveals that the thermal switching ratio of VI$_{3}$ can reach 3.9 along the $a$-axis. Mechanical properties analysis indicates that the $C2/m$ structure is stiffer than the $R\bar{3}$ one, causing the larger phonon velocity in $C2/m$ phase. Moreover, due to the fewer phonon branches in $C2/m$ phase, the number of phonon-phonon scattering channels in $C2/m$ phase is smaller compared to that of $R\bar{3}$ phase. Both the larger phonon velocity and the longer phonon lifetime lead to larger lattice thermal conductivity in $C2/m$ phase. This study uncovers the mechanical and thermal properties of VI$_{3}$, which provides useful guides for designing magnetic materials-based devices such as thermal switch.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
