Electronic properties and transport in metal/2D material/metal vertical junctions
Gaëlle Bigeard, Zineb Kerrami, François Triozon +1
We simulate the electronic and transport properties of metal/two-dimensional material/metal vertical heterostructures, with a focus on graphene, hexagonal boron nitride and two pha…
Magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene under orthogonal and in-plane magnetic fields
Gaëlle Bigeard, Alessandro Cresti
We investigate the effect of a magnetic field on the band structure of bilayer graphene with a magic twist angle of 1.08°. The coupling of a tight-binding model and the Peierls pha…
Tutorial notes for the evaluation of thermoelectric quantum bounds in ideal nanostructures
Giuseppe Bevilacqua, Alessandro Cresti, Giuseppe Grosso +2
The wave-like nature of electrons leads to the existence of upper bounds on the thermoelectric response of nanostructured devices [R. S. Whitney, Phys. Rev. Lett. 112, 130601 (2014…
Convenient Peierls phase choice for periodic atomistic systems under magnetic field
Alessandro Cresti
Hamiltonian models based on a localized basis set are widely used in condensed matter physics, as, for example, for the calculation of electronic structures or transport properties…
Thermoelectric properties of in-plane -bent graphene nanoribbons with nanopores
Van-Truong Tran, Alessandro Cresti
We study the thermoelectric performance of -bent graphene nanoribbons containing nanopores for optimized design of multiple functional circuits including thermoelectric gener…
Regimes and quantum bounds of nanoscale thermoelectrics with peaked transmission function
Giuseppe Bevilacqua, Alessandro Cresti, Giuseppe Grosso +2
Based on the Landauer-Büttiker theory, we explore the thermal regimes of two-terminal nanoscale systems with an energy-peaked transmission function. The device is in contact with t…
