Research Abstract |
According to the social demand for developing the energy harvesting technologies, enhancement of thermoelectric performance of materials have been attracted much attention both for the fundamental science and device applications. In this study, we have developed a new simulation method for thermoelectric properties of materials and constructed a new simulator based on the theory we developed. Furthermore, we investigated the electronic transport properties on semiconducting carbon nanotubes with randomly distributed impurities and the influence of the electron-electron interaction onto the electronic transport on nanoscale structures with the use of the simulator.
