Confinement Effect on Thermopower of Electrolytes
Xin Qian, Te-Huan Liu, Ronggui Yang
Ionic Seebeck effect of electrolytes has shown promising applications in harvesting energy from low-grade waste-heat sources with small temperature difference from the environment,…
Phonon Quantum Phase Transition
Ricardo Pablo-Pedro, Nina Andrejevic, Yoichiro Tsurimaki +5
We show that a quantum phase transition can occur in a phonon system in the presence of dislocations. Due to the competing nature between the topological protection of the dislocat…
Simultaneously high electron and hole mobilities in cubic boron-V compounds: BP, BAs and BSb
Te-Huan Liu, Bai Song, Laureen Meroueh +5
Through first-principles calculations, the phonon-limited transport properties of cubic boron-V compounds (BP, BAs and BSb) are studied. We find that the high optical phonon freque…
Phonon Hydrodynamic Heat Conduction and Knudsen Minimum in Graphite
Zhiwei Ding, Jiawei Zhou, Bai Song +4
In the hydrodynamic regime, phonons drift with a nonzero collective velocity under a temperature gradient, reminiscent of viscous gas and fluid flow. The study of hydrodynamic phon…
Dirac-Electrons-Mediated Magnetic Proximity Effect in Topological Insulator / Magnetic Insulator Heterostructures
Mingda Li, Qichen Song, Weiwei Zhao +8
The possible realization of dissipationless chiral edge current in a topological insulator / magnetic insulator heterostructure is based on the condition that the magnetic proximit…
study of electron mean free paths and thermoelectric properties of lead telluride
Qichen Song, Te-Huan Liu, Jiawei Zhou +2
Last few years have witnessed significant enhancement of thermoelectric figure of merit of lead telluride (PbTe) via nanostructuring. Despite the experimental progress, current und…
First-principles mode-by-mode analysis for electron-phonon scattering channels and mean free path spectra in GaAs
Te-Huan Liu, Jiawei Zhou, Bolin Liao +2
We present a first-principles framework to investigate the electron scattering channels and transport properties for polar material by combining the exact solution of linearized el…
