Lineshape of the thermopower of quantum dots
S. Fahlvik Svensson, A. I. Persson, E. A. Hoffmann +5
Quantum dots are an important model system for thermoelectric phenomena, and may be used to enhance the thermal-to-electric energy conversion efficiency in functional materials. It…
Mesoscopic Thermovoltage Measurement Design
E. A. Hoffmann, H. A. Nilsson, L. Samuelson +1
Quantitative thermoelectric measurements in the mesoscopic regime require accurate knowledge of temperature, thermovoltage, and device energy scales. We consider the effect of a fi…
Thermally driven ballistic rectifer
Jason Matthews, David Sánchez, Marcus Larsson +1
The response of electric devices to an applied thermal gradient has, so far, been studied almost exclusively in two-terminal devices. Here we present measurements of the response t…
Increasing thermoelectric performance using coherent transport
Olov Karlstrom, Heiner Linke, Gunnar Karlstrom +1
We show that coherent electron transport through zero-dimensional systems can be used to tailor the shape of the system's transmission function. This quantum-engineering approach c…
Probing the Sensitivity of Electron Wave Interference to Disorder-Induced Scattering in Solid-State Devices
B. C. Scannell, I. Pilgrim, A. M. See +11
The study of electron motion in semiconductor billiards has elucidated our understanding of quantum interference and quantum chaos. The central assumption is that ionized donors ge…
