Thermoelectric effects in superconducting nanostructures [PDF]
We study thermoelectric effects in superconducting nanobridges and demonstrate that the magnitude of these effects can be comparable or even larger than that for a macroscopic superconducting circuit. The reason is related to a possibility to have very large gradients of electron temperature within the nanobridge.

Thermoelectric effects in graphene nanostructures [PDF]
The thermoelectric properties of graphene and graphene nanostructures have recently attracted significant attention from the physics and engineering communities. In fundamental physics, the analysis of Seebeck and Nernst effects is very useful in elucidating some details of the electronic band structure of graphene that cannot be probed by conductance ...

Towards Optimizing Width Modulation for Maximum Thermoelectric Efficiency
Maximizing thermoelectric efficiency is typically addressed as identical to minimizing parasitic thermal conduction. Such an approach relies on the assumption that the adopted strategy mainly affects phonons, leaving electrons intact, and is not ...

Thermoelectric Effects in Nanoscale Junctions [PDF]
Despite its intrinsic nonequilibrium origin, thermoelectricity in nanoscale systems is usually described within a static scattering approach which disregards the dynamical interaction with the thermal baths that maintain energy flow. Using the theory of open quantum systems, we show instead that unexpected properties, such as a resonant structure and ...
