Current Induced Heat Generation in Ferromagnet-Quantum Dot-Ferromagnet System

We study the heat generation in ferromagnet-quantum dot-ferromagnet system by the non-equilibrium Green’s functions method. Heat generation under the influence of ferromagnet leads is very different compared with a system with normal metal leads. The significant effects in heat generation are caused...
