Magneto-Thermoelectric Transport in Graphene Quantum Dot with Strong Correlations

Disorder at etched edges of graphene quantum dots (GQD) enables random all-to-all interactions between localized charges in partially filled Landau levels, providing a potential platform to realize the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model. We use quantum Hall edg ...

Thermoelectric power of overdoped Tl2201 crystals: charge density waves and T1 and T2 resistivities

Matthias Carsten Putzke

We report measurements of the in-plane thermoelectric power (TEP) for an overdoped (OD) crystal of the single layer cuprate superconductor Tl2Ba2CuO6+x (Tl2201) at several hole concentrations (p), from 300 or 400 K to below the superconducting transition t ...

A concept for the extraction of the most refractory elements at CERN-ISOLDE as carbonyl complex ions

João Pedro Fernandes Pinto Ramos

We introduce a novel thick-target concept tailored to the extraction of refractory 4d and 5d transition metal radionuclides of molybdenum, technetium, ruthenium and tungsten for radioactive ion beam production. Despite the more than 60-year old history of ...

Strong temperature-dependent thermoelectric power of IrMn(3)thin films of different thicknesses

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Junfeng Hu, Mukund Krishna Kothari

IrMn(3)thin films were experimentally characterized by thermoelectric power and resistivity as a function of temperature and sample thickness. The Seebeck coefficient shows strong temperature dependence and the value increases with temperature up to 350 K. ...

Development of a processing route for carbon allotrope-based TiC porous nanocomposites

Paul Bowen

Ti-foils are currently used as a spallation target material to produce radioisotopes for physics research at the ISOLDE facility at CERN. However, radioisotope production rates often decrease over time due to material degradation from high operation temper ...

Performance improvement of a micro thermomechanical generator by incorporating Galinstan (R) micro droplet arrays

In previous research we have demonstrated a micro thermomechanical pyroelectric generator (mu TMPG) as an alternative to thermoelectric generators to harvest ambient heat energy. In such a device, a thermal mass oscillates between a hot and a cold side by ...
