Magneto-Thermoelectric Transport in Graphene Quantum Dot with Strong Correlations

Disorder at etched edges of graphene quantum dots (GQD) enables random all-to-all interactions between localized charges in partially filled Landau levels, providing a potential platform to realize the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model. We use quantum Hall edg ...

Thermoelectric power of overdoped Tl2201 crystals: charge density waves and resistivities

Matthias Carsten Putzke

We report measurements of the in-plane thermoelectric power (TEP) for an overdoped (OD) crystal of the single layer cuprate superconductor Tl2Ba2CuO6+x (Tl2201) at several hole concentrations (p), from 300 or 400 K to below the superconducting transition t ...

A concept for the extraction of the most refractory elements at CERN-ISOLDE as carbonyl complex ions

We introduce a novel thick-target concept tailored to the extraction of refractory 4d and 5d transition metal radionuclides of molybdenum, technetium, ruthenium and tungsten for radioactive ion beam production. Despite the more than 60-year old history of ...

Strong temperature-dependent thermoelectric power of IrMn(3)thin films of different thicknesses

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Junfeng Hu, Mukund Krishna Kothari

IrMn(3)thin films were experimentally characterized by thermoelectric power and resistivity as a function of temperature and sample thickness. The Seebeck coefficient shows strong temperature dependence and the value increases with temperature up to 350 K. ...

Tailoring thermal properties of functional materials

Xavier François Mettan

Thermal conductivity (k) plays an essential role in functional devices. In some cases, high value is required to transfer heat efficiently. In others, low k assists in maintaining a temperature gradient necessary for device operation. It is profitable to d ...
