Thermoelectric properties of quantum dots and other low-dimensional systems

xii, 106 p. : ill. (some col.) === Quantum dots are systems in which all three spatial sizes are comparable to the Fermi wavelength. The strong confinement leads to a discrete energy spectrum. A goal of thermoelectric research is to find a system with a high thermoelectric figure of merit, which is...
