Heat-dissipation in atomic-scale junctions

Tuesday, 10.06.2014 10:00 - 11:00

Prof. Dr. Juan Carlos Cuevas (Department of Theoretical Condensed Matter Physics, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, E-28049 Madrid (Spain))

Atomic and single-molecule junctions represent the ultimate limit to the miniaturization of electrical circuits [1]. They are also ideal platforms to test quantum transport theories that are required to describe charge and energy transfer in novel functional nanodevices. Recent work has successfully probed electric and thermoelectric phenomena in atomic-scale junctions.
