In this brief tutorial review, I show how phase coherent properties of disordered conductors can be described in a simple and unified way. These properties include transport properties like weak-localization correction and universal…

This letter reports thermopower and conductivity measurements through the metal-insulator transition for 2-dimensional electron gases in high mobility Si-MOSFET's. At low temperatures both thermopower and conductivity show critical behavior…

Using a stochastic quantum approach, we study thermoelectric transport phenomena at low temperatures in disordered electrical systems connected to external baths. We discuss three different models of one-dimensional disordered electrons,…

We investigate the thermoelectric properties of a T-shaped double quantum dot system described by a generalized Anderson Hamiltonian. The system's electrical conduction (G) and the fundamental thermoelectric parameters such as the Seebeck…

Many seemingly different macroscopic systems (magnets, ferroelectrics, CDW, vortices,..) can be described as generic disordered elastic systems. Understanding their static and dynamics thus poses challenging problems both from the point of…

We study a system composed of two quantum dots connected in series between two leads at different temperatures, in the limit of large intratomic repulsion. Using the non-crossing approximation, we calculate the spectral densities at both…

We have combined the Boltzmann transport equation with an {\it ab initio} approach to compute the thermoelectric coefficients of semiconductors. Electron-phonon, ionized impurity, and electron-plasmon scattering rates have been taken into…

Utilizing the non-coherent quantum transport formalism, we investigate thermoelectric performance across dissipative superlattice configurations in the linear regime of operation. Using the {\it{dissipative}} non-equilibrium Green's…

Thermoelectric materials are of great interest for heat energy harvesting applications. One such promising material is TlGaSe$_{2}$, a p-type semiconducting ternary chalcogenide. Recent reports show it can be processed as a thin film,…

This work studies heat transport of bond-disordered spin-1/2 chains. As an example, the XX case is analyzed, which corresponds to a model of noninteracting spinless fermions. Within the fermion representation, the single-particle…

Effects of collective modes on thermoelectric properties of a charge density system is studied. We derive the temperature dependence of thermoelectric power and thermal conductivity by applying the linear response theory to Fr\"ohlich…

The transport coefficients of disordered media are analyzed using direct numerical simulation and effective medium theory. The results indicate a range of materials parameters for which disorder leads to an enhanced power factor. This…

Charge and thermal conductivities are the most important parameters of carbon nanomaterials as candidates for future electronics. In this paper we address the effects of Anderson type disorder in long semiconductor carbon nanotubes (CNTs)…

There are two main directions in this paper. One is to find sufficient conditions to ensure the existence of weak solutions to thermoelectric problems. At the steady-state, these problems consist by a coupled system of elliptic equations of…

The thermoelectric Thomson effect, predicted in the 1850s by William Thomson, produces volumetric heating/cooling in a conductor due to the concerted action of the Seebeck and Peltier effects. Recently, transverse thermoelectrics studies on…

We numerically investigate the transport properties of disordered interacting electrons in three dimensions in the metallic as well as in the insulating phases. The disordered many-particle problem is modeled by the quantum Coulomb glass…

We develop a new theoretical scheme for charge transport and thermoelectric response in two-dimensional disordered systems exhibiting crossover from weak localization (WL) to strong localization (SL). The scheme is based on the scaling…

Quantum dots are model systems for quantum thermoelectric behavior because of the ability to control and measure the effects of electron-energy filtering and quantum confinement on thermoelectric properties. Interestingly, nonlinear…

We study interaction corrections to the thermoelectric transport coefficient $\alpha$ and the thermopower $S$ in the two-dimensional disordered electron gas with long-range Coulomb interactions. To this end, we analyze the heat…

Considering screeening of electron scattering interactions in terms of the finite-temperature STLS theory and solving the linearized Boltzmann equation (with no appeal to a relaxation time approximation), we present a theoretical analysis…
