Electronic heat transport across a molecular wire: Power spectrum of heat fluctuations
With this study we analyze the fluctuations of an electronic heat current across a molecular wire. The wire is composed of a single energy level, which connects two leads that are held at different temperatures. By use of the Green function method we derive an explicit expression for the power spectral density of the emerging heat noise. This result assumes a form that is quite distinct from th...
متن کاملPower spectrum of electronic heat current fluctuations
We analyze the fluctuations of an electronic thermal current across an idealized molecular junction. The focus here will be on the spectral features of the resulting heat fluctuations. By use of the Green function method we derive an explicit expression for the frequency-dependent power spectral density of the emerging energy fluctuations. The complex expression simplifies considerably in the l...
متن کاملQuantum limit of heat flow across a single electronic channel.
Quantum physics predicts that there is a fundamental maximum heat conductance across a single transport channel and that this thermal conductance quantum, G(Q), is universal, independent of the type of particles carrying the heat. Such universality, combined with the relationship between heat and information, signals a general limit on information transfer. We report on the quantitative measure...
متن کاملHeat conduction across molecular junctions between nanoparticles.
We investigate the problem of heat conduction across molecular junctions connecting two nanoparticles, both in vacuum and in a liquid environment, using classical molecular dynamics simulations. In vacuum, the well-known result of a length independent conductance is recovered; its precise value, however, is found to depend sensitively on the overlap between the vibrational spectrum of the junct...
متن کاملMeasurement of voltage-dependent electronic transport across amine-linked single-molecular-wire junctions.
We measure the conductance and current-voltage characteristics of two amine-terminated molecular wires -- 4,4'-diaminostilbene and bis-(4-aminophenyl)acetylene -- by breaking Au point contacts in a molecular solution at room temperature. Histograms compiled from thousands of measurements show a slight increase in the molecular junction conductance (I/V) as the bias is increased to nearly 450 mV...
