Thermoelectric response from grain boundaries and lattice distortions in crystalline gold devices
Charlotte I. Evans, Rui Yang, Lucia T. Gan +5
The electronic Seebeck response in a conductor involves the energy-dependent mean free path of the charge carriers and is affected by crystal structure, scattering from boundaries…
Photovoltages and hot electrons in plasmonic nanogaps
Douglas Natelson, Charlotte I. Evans, Pavlo Zolotavin
In metal nanostructures under illumination, multiple different processes can drive current flow, and in an open- circuit configuration some of these processes lead to the productio…
Substantial local variation of Seebeck coefficient in gold nanowires
Pavlo Zolotavin, Charlotte I. Evans, Douglas Natelson
Nanoscale structuring holds promise to improve thermoelectric properties of materials for energy conversion and photodetection. We report a study of the spatial distribution of the…
Photothermoelectric effects and large photovoltages in plasmonic Au nanowires with nanogaps
Pavlo Zolotavin, Charlotte I. Evans, Douglas Natelson
Nanostructured metals subject to local optical interrogation can generate open-circuit photovoltages potentially useful for energy conversion and photodetection. We report a study…
