Thermal Boundary Conductance Across Metal-Nonmetal Interfaces: Effects of Electron-Phonon Coupling both in Metal and at Interface
Mengjie Li, Yuanyuan Wang, Jun Zhou +2
We theoretically investigate the thermal boundary conductance across metal-nonmetal interfaces in the presence of the electron-phonon coupling not only in metal but also at interfa…
Spin Seebeck Effect in Asymmetric Four-Terminal Systems with Rashba Spin-Orbit Coupling
Jun Zhou, Biao Wang, Mengjie Li +2
We propose a new type of the spin Seebeck effect (SSE) emerging from the Rashba spin-orbit coupling in asymmetric four-terminal electron systems. This system generates spin current…
An Electrohydrodynamics Model for Non-equilibrium Electron and Phonon Transport in Metal Films after Ultra-short Pulse Laser Heating
Jun Zhou, Nianbei Li, Ronggui Yang
The electrons and phonons in metal films after ultra-short pulse laser heating are in highly non-equilibrium states not only between the electron sub-system and the phonon sub-syst…
Inhomogeneous Thermal Conductivity Enhances Thermoelectric Cooling
Tingyu Lu, Jun Zhou, Nianbei Li +2
We theoretically investigate the enhancement of thermoelectric cooling performance in thermoelectric devices made of materials with inhomogeneous thermal conductivity, beyond the u…
Wave-packet rectification in nonlinear electronic systems: A tunable Aharonov-Bohm diode
Yunyun Li, Jun Zhou, Fabio Marchesoni +1
Rectification of electron wave-packets propagating along a quasi-one dimensional chain is commonly achieved via the simultaneous action of nonlinearity and longitudinal asymmetry,…
