Scattering theory of nonlinear thermoelectric transport.
We investigate nonlinear transport properties of quantum conductors in response to both electrical and thermal driving forces. Within the scattering approach, we determine the nonequilibrium screening potential of a generic mesoscopic system and find that its response is dictated by particle and entropic injectivities which describe the charge and entropy transfer during transport. We illustrat...
متن کاملTransport in multiterminal graphene nanodevices.
We study the transport properties of multiterminal graphene nanodevices using the Landauer-Buttiker approach and the tight binding model. We consider a four-terminal device made at the crossing of a zigzag and armchair nanoribbons and two types of T-junction devices. The transport properties of graphene multiterminal devices are highly sensitive to the details of the junction region. Thus the p...

متن کاملTheory of Nanotube Nanodevices
The paper reviews quantum and classical effects which arise in physics of nanotube devices. Knowledge of nanotube electronic structure has been used for a calculation of quantum capacitance and quantum terms in van der Waals energy. Combining analytical theory and quantum mechanical micromodels I worked out a description for nanoelectromechanical devices, for example, electromechanical switch. ...
متن کاملA review of carrier thermoelectric-transport theory in organic semiconductors.
Carrier thermoelectric-transport theory has recently become of growing interest and numerous thermoelectric-transport models have been proposed for organic semiconductors, due to pressing current issues involving energy production and the environment. The purpose of this review is to provide a theoretical description of the thermoelectric Seebeck effect in organic semiconductors. Special attent...
