Carrier localization and miniband modeling of InAs/GaSb based type-II superlattice infrared detectors
Swarnadip Mukherjee, Anuja Singh, Aditi Bodhankar +1
Microscopic features of carrier localization, minibands, and spectral currents of InAs/GaSb based type-II superlattice (T2SL) mid-infrared detector structures are studied and inves…
Three terminal vibron coupled hybrid quantum dot thermoelectric refrigeration
Swarnadip Mukherjee, Bitan De, Bhaskaran Muralidharan
A three terminal nanoscale refrigeration concept based on a vibron-coupled quantum dot hybrid system coupled to two electronic reservoirs and a phonon bath is proposed and analyzed…
Superlattice design for optimal thermoelectric generator performance
Pankaj Priyadarshi, Abhishek Sharma, Swarnadip Mukherjee +1
We consider the design of an optimal superlattice thermoelectric generator via the energy bandpass filter approach. Various configurations of superlattice structures are explored t…
Optimized Fabry-Pérot cavity engineered nanoscale thermoelectric generators
Swarnadip Mukherjee, Bhaskaran Muralidharan
In this work, we aim to design a heterostructure based nanoscale thermoelectric generator that can maximize the waste-heat conversion efficiency at a given output power. The primar…
Superior thermoelectric performance via "anti-reflection" enabled double-barrier structures
Swarnadip Mukherjee, Pankaj Priyadarshi, Bhaskaran Muralidharan
We demonstrate theoretically using the atomistic non-equilibrium Green's function formalism with the inclusion of self-consistent charging, the design of a superior thermoelectric…
