Thermoelectric Effect in a Correlated Quantum Dot Side-Coupled to Majorana Bound States

Abstract We theoretically study the thermoelectric effect in a hybrid device composed by a topological semiconducting nanowire hosting Majorana bound states (MBSs) and a quantum dot (QD) connected to the left and right non-magnetic electrodes held at different temperatures. The electron-electron Cou...
