Heat current in a parametric quantum pump

Title Heat current and spin current through a carbon-nanotube-based molecular quantum pump

Quantum current modeling in nano-transistors with a quantum dot

Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) serve as a new class of ‘zero dimensional’ nanomaterial’s in thecarbon class with sizes below 10 nm. As light emitting nanocrystals, QDs are assembled from semiconductormaterials, from the elements in the periodic groups of II-VI, III-V or IV-VI, mainly thanks to impacts of quantum confinement QDs have unique optical properties such as brighter, highly pho...

Testing a Quantum Heat Pump with a Two-Level Spin

Once in its non-equilibrium steady state, a nanoscale system coupled to several heat baths may be thought of as a “quantum heat pump”. Depending on the direction of its stationary heat flows, it may function as, e.g., a refrigerator or a heat transformer. These continuous heat devices can be arbitrarily complex multipartite systems, and yet, their working principle is always the same: they are ...

Adiabatic quantum pump of spin-polarized current.

We propose a mechanism by which an open quantum dot driven by two ac (radio frequency) gate voltages in the presence of a moderate in-plane magnetic field generates a spin-polarized, phase-coherent dc current. The idea combines adiabatic, nonquantized (but coherent) pumping through periodically modulated external parameters and the strong fluctuations of the electron wave function existent in c...

Analytical quantum current modeling in GNSFET

Carbon nanoscrolls (CNSs) belong to the same class of carbon-based nanomaterialsas carbon nanotubes. As a new category of quasi one dimensional material Graphene Nanoscroll (GNS) has captivated the researchers recently because of its exceptional electronic properties like having large carrier mobility. GNS shape has open edges and no caps unlike Single Wall Nanotubes (SWNTs) which are wou...
