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 …

We employ first principles calculations to investigate the electronic, optical, and
thermoelectric properties of ten boron-doped nitrogenated holey graphene (NHG) …

Conversion of temperature gradients to charge currents in quantum dot systems enables
probing various concepts from highly efficient energy harvesting and fundamental …

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 …

Nanowires are an important form of nanostructure evolving as promising components for the
rapidly growing semiconductor industry. Nanowires are nanoscale components that can be …

Wires of different shapes and sizes have been an essential part of human society for
centuries. Nanowires are used for a variety of applications, viz., the transmission of …

We consider the thermoelectric response of chaotic or disordered quantum dots in the limit
of phase-coherent transport, statistically described by random matrix theory. We calculate …
