非谐系统中的稳态热输运:在分子结中的应用

Steady state thermal transport in anharmonic systems: Application to molecular junctions

Juzar Thingna, J. L. García-Palacios, Jian-Sheng Wang

摘要:

我们发展了一个类似于量子主方程形式主义的弱系统浴耦合近似下非谐系统热输运的一般理论。推导出一个电流算符,它不仅在稳态下有效,而且在瞬态区也有效。本文主要研究非谐性对单原子和双原子分子结稳态热导的影响。我们还研究了被限制在双阱势中的分子。我们发现当分子具有非线性在位势时,非线性的强度对低温热导率有显著的影响,而对于由非谐弹簧连接的双原子分子,非谐性的强度在低温区几乎不起作用.当分子处于双势阱中时,势垒的高度对热导率有很大的影响,当分子感受到势垒的影响时,在高温和低温下都能观察到负的微分热导率。

英文摘要:

We develop a general theory for thermal transport in anharmonic systems under the weak system-bath coupling approximation similar to the quantum master equation formalism. A current operator is derived, which is valid not only in the steady state, but in the transient regime as well. Here we focus on the effects of anharmonicity on the steady-state thermal conductance of a mono and diatomic molecular junctions. We also study molecules being confined in a double-well potential. We find that when the molecules have a non-linear on-site potential the low-temperature thermal conductance is dramatically affected by the strength of non-linearity, whereas for the diatomic molecule connected by an anharmonic spring the strength of anharmonicity plays almost no role in the low-temperature regime. In case of the molecules confined in a double-well potential we find that the height of the barrier greatly affects the thermal conductance; once the molecules can feel the effect of the barrier we observe negative differential thermal conductance at both high and low temperatures.
