Tutorial notes for the evaluation of thermoelectric quantum bounds in ideal nanostructures
Giuseppe Bevilacqua, Alessandro Cresti, Giuseppe Grosso +2
The wave-like nature of electrons leads to the existence of upper bounds on the thermoelectric response of nanostructured devices [R. S. Whitney, Phys. Rev. Lett. 112, 130601 (2014…
Regimes and quantum bounds of nanoscale thermoelectrics with peaked transmission function
Giuseppe Bevilacqua, Alessandro Cresti, Giuseppe Grosso +2
Based on the Landauer-Büttiker theory, we explore the thermal regimes of two-terminal nanoscale systems with an energy-peaked transmission function. The device is in contact with t…
Analytic treatment of the thermoelectric properties for two coupled quantum dots threaded by magnetic fields
Guido Menichetti, Giuseppe Grosso, Giuseppe Pastori Parravicini
Coupled double quantum dots (c-2QD) connected to leads have been widely adopted as prototype model systems to verify interference effects on quantum transport at the nanoscale. We…
Thermoelectric efficiency of nanoscale devices in the linear regime
G. Bevilacqua, G. Grosso, G. Menichetti +1
We study quantum transport through two-terminal nanoscale devices in contact with two particle reservoirs at different temperatures and chemical potentials. We discuss the general…
