Time-resolved PhotoEmission Spectroscopy on a Metal/Ferroelectric Heterostructure
J. E. Rault, G. Agnus, T. Maroutian +8
In thin film ferroelectric capacitor the chemical and electronic structure of the electrode/FE interface can play a crucial role in determining the kinetics of polarization switchi…
Comment on "Effective thermal conductivity in thermoelectric materials"
Y. Apertet, H. Ouerdane, C. Goupil +1
In a recent article, Baranowski et al. [J. Appl. Phys. 113, 204904 (2013)] proposed a model that allegedly facilitates optimization of thermoelectric generators operation as these…
On the efficiency at maximum cooling power
Yann Apertet, Henni Ouerdane, Aurelie Michot +2
The efficiency at maximum power (EMP) of heat engines operating as generators is one corner stone of finite-time thermodynamics, the Curzon-Ahlborn efficiency being co…
From local force-flux relationships to internal dissipations and their impact on heat engine performance: The illustrative case of a thermoelectric generator
Yann Apertet, Henni Ouerdane, Christophe Goupil +1
We present an in-depth analysis of the sometimes understated role of the principle of energy conservation in linear irreversible thermodynamics. Our case study is that of a thermoe…
Interface Electronic Structure in a Metal/Ferroelectric Heterostructure under Applied Bias
J. E. Rault, G. Agnus, T. Maroutian +8
The effective barrier height between an electrode and a ferroelectric (FE) depends on both macroscopic electrical properties and microscopic chemical and electronic structure. The…
