Quantum confinement suppressing electronic heat flow below the Wiedemann-Franz law
D. Majidi, M. Josefsson, M. Kumar +5
The Wiedemann-Franz law states that the charge conductance and the electronic contribution to the heat conductance are proportional. This sets stringent constraints on efficiency b…
Heat driven transport in serial double quantum dot devices
Sven Dorsch, Artis Svilans, Martin Josefsson +5
Studies of thermally induced transport in nanostructures provide access to an exciting regime where fluctuations are relevant, enabling the investigation of fundamental thermodynam…
Double quantum-dot engine fueled by entanglement between electron spins
Martin Josefsson, Martin Leijnse
The laws of thermodynamics allow work extraction from a single heat bath provided that the entropy decrease of the bath is compensated for by another part of the system. We propose…
Optimal power and efficiency of single quantum dot heat engines: theory and experiment
Martin Josefsson, Artis Svilans, Heiner Linke +1
Quantum dots (QDs) can serve as near perfect energy filters and are therefore of significant interest for the study of thermoelectric energy conversion close to thermodynamic effic…
Thermoelectric characterization of the Kondo resonance in nanowire quantum dots
Artis Svilans, Martin Josefsson, Adam M. Burke +4
We experimentally verify hitherto untested theoretical predictions about the thermoelectric properties of Kondo correlated quantum dots (QDs). The specific conditions required for…
A quantum-dot heat engine operating close to the thermodynamic efficiency limits
Martin Josefsson, Artis Svilans, Adam M. Burke +5
Cyclical heat engines are a paradigm of classical thermodynamics, but are impractical for miniaturization because they rely on moving parts. A more recent concept is particle-excha…
