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 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...
متن کاملNonisothermal Activation: Nonlinear Transport Theory
We present the statistical mechanical foundation of nonisothermal stochastic processes, thereby generalizing Kramers' Fokker{Planck model for thermal activation and providing a microscopic context for Rolf Landauer's original ideas on state-dependent diiusion. By applying projection operator methods suitable for nonlinear mesoscopic systems coupled to a heat bath, we develop the theory of class...
