Giant magnetoresistance and spin Seebeck coefficient in zigzag a-graphyne nanoribbons
M. X. Zhai, X. F. Wang, P. Vasilopoulos +5
We investigate the spin-dependent electric and thermoelectric properties of ferromagnetic zigzag-graphyne nanoribbons (ZGNRs) using the density-functional theory combined with the…
Vacancy Effects on Electric and Thermoelectric Properties of Zigzag Silicene Nanoribbons
R. L. An, X. F. Wang, P. Vasilopoulos +4
We study the crystal reconstruction in the presence of monovacancies (MVs), divacancies (DVs) and linear vacancies (LVs) in a zigzag silicene nanoribbon (ZSiNR) with transversal sy…
Spin-dependent ballistic transport properties and electronic structures of pristine and edge-doped zigzag silicene nanoribbons: large magnetoresistance
A. B. Chen, X. F. Wang, P. Vasilopoulos +2
The electronic structure and conductance of substitutionally edge-doped zigzag silicene nanoribbons (ZSiNRs) are investigated using the nonequilibrium Green's function method combi…
Seebeck Coefficients in Nanoscale Junctions: Effects of Electron-vibration Scattering and Local Heating
Bailey C. Hsu, Yu-Shen Liu, Sheng Hsien Lin +1
We report first-principles calculations of inelastic Seebeck coefficients in an aluminum monatomic junction. We compare the elastic and inelastic Seebeck coefficients with and with…
Counting Statistics in Nanoscale Junctions
Yu-Shen Liu, Yu-Chang Chen
We present first-principles calculations for moments of the current up to the third order in atomic-scale junctions. The quantum correlations of the current are calculated using th…
Atomic-scale Field-effect Transistor as a Thermoelectric Power Generator and Self-powered Device
Yu-Shen Liu, Hsuan-Te Yao, Yu-Chang Chen
Using first-principles approaches, we have investigated the thermoelectric properties and the energy conversion efficiency of the paired metal-Br-Al junction. Owing to the narrow s…
