In recent years, the study of heat to work conversion has been re-invigorated by
nanotechnology. Steady-state devices do this conversion without any macroscopic moving …

Understanding and controlling quantum transport in low-dimensional systems is pivotal for
heat management at the nanoscale. One promising strategy to obtain the desired transport …

Junctions based on electronic ballistic waveguides, such as semiconductor nanowires or
nanoribbons with transverse structural variations in the order of a large fraction of their Fermi …

The field of nanoscale thermoelectrics began with a clear motivation for better performances
of waste heat recovery processes by lowering the system dimensionality. Although this …

We have simultaneously measured conductance and thermoelectric power (TEP) of
individual silicon and germanium/silicon core/shell nanowires in the field effect transistor …

We study the thermopower of a disordered nanowire in the field effect transistor
configuration. After a first paper devoted to the elastic coherent regime (Bosisio, Fleury and …

We study a thermoelectric ratchet consisting of an array of disordered nanowires arranged in
parallel on top of an insulating substrate and contacted asymmetrically to two electrodes …

We study arrays of parallel doped semiconductor nanowires in a temperature range where
the electrons propagate through the nanowires by phonon-assisted hops between localized …

In non-relativistic quantum theories the Lieb-Robinson bound defines an effective light cone
with exponentially small tails outside of it. In this work we use it to derive a bound for the time …

We review a series of works describing thermoelectric effects (TEs) in gated disordered
nanowires (field-effect transistor device configuration). After considering the elastic coherent …
