Enhanced Thermoelectric Figure of Merit in Edge Disordered Zigzag Graphene Nanoribbons
We investigate electron and phonon transport through edge disordered zigzag graphene nanoribbons based on the same methodological tool of nonequilibrium Green functions. We show that edge disorder dramatically reduces phonon thermal transport while being only weakly detrimental to electronic conduction. The behavior of the electronic and phononic elastic mean free paths points to the possibilit...

متن کاملTransport length scales in disordered graphene-based materials: strong localization regimes and dimensionality effects.
We report on a numerical study of quantum transport in disordered two dimensional graphene and graphene nanoribbons. By using the Kubo and the Landauer approaches, transport length scales in the diffusive (mean free path and charge mobilities) and localized regimes (localization lengths) are computed, assuming a short range disorder (Anderson-type). The electronic systems are found to undergo a...
متن کاملPhonon Transport in Large Scale Carbon-Based Disordered Materials: Implementation of an Efficient Order-N and Real Space Kubo Methodology
We have developed an efficient order-N real space Kubo approach for the calculation of the phonon conductivity which outperforms state-of-the-art alternative implementations based on the Green’s function formalism. The method treats efficiently the time-dependent propagation of phonon wave packets in real space, and this dynamics is related to the calculation of the thermal conductance. Without...
متن کاملMobility in semiconducting graphene nanoribbons: Phonon, impurity, and edge roughness scattering
The transport properties of carriers in semiconducting graphene nanoribbons are studied by comparing the effects of phonon, impurity, and line-edge roughness scattering. It is found that scattering from impurities located at the surface of nanoribbons and from acoustic phonons are as important as line-edge roughness scattering. The relative importance of these scattering mechanisms varies with ...
