单分子器件中的巨热电势和优值

Giant thermopower and figure of merit in single-molecule devices

C. M. Finch, V. M. García-Suárez, C. J. Lambert

摘要:

本文研究了夹在金电极之间的分子的热电势$S$和无量纲品质因数$ZT$。我们发现,对于侧基的分子,透射系数的形状可以显着修改Fano共振附近的费米能,这可以调整,以产生巨大的增加$S$和$ZT$。这表明表现出Fano共振的分子具有高的热电冷却效率,这对于沿其主链仅具有离域态的常规非门控分子是不存在的。

英文摘要:

We present a study of the thermopower $S$ and the dimensionless figure of merit $ZT$ in molecules sandwiched between gold electrodes. We show that for molecules with side groups, the shape of the transmission coefficient can be dramatically modified by Fano resonances near the Fermi energy, which can be tuned to produce huge increases in $S$ and $ZT$. This shows that molecules exhibiting Fano resonances have a high efficiency of thermoelectric cooling which is not present for conventional un-gated molecules with only delocalized states along their backbone.
