The Magnetic Field

Self-consistent calculations of the electronic structure of center n-δ-doped GaAs/Al x Ga 1-x As quantum wells under in-plane magnetic fields are presented. The field B is varied up to 20 Tesla for different quantum well widths L w and sheet donor concentrations N D . The magnetic field produces noticeable changes in the energy dispersions along an in-plane direction perpendicular to B. The effects of B are more pronounced for higher electronic subbands. It is found that the diamagnetic shifts increase with increasing L w and/or N D . Contrarily to what has been observed in modulation-doped quantum wells, in these δ-doped systems the electron energy dispersions keep the single conduction band minimum at the center of the Brillouin zone even for intense magnetic fields.

Anomalous Nernst Effect

The transverse voltage generated by a temperature gradient in a perpendicularly applied magnetic field, termed the Nernst effect, has promise for thermoelectric applications and for probing electronic structure. In magnetic materials, an anomalous Nernst effect (ANE) is possible in a zero magnetic field. We report a colossal ANE in the ferromagnetic metal UCo0.8Ru0.2Al, reaching 23 microvolts per kelvin. Uranium’s 5f electrons provide strong electronic correlations that lead to narrow bands, a known route to producing a large thermoelectric response. In addition, uranium’s strong spin-orbit coupling produces an intrinsic transverse response in this material due to the Berry curvature associated with the relativistic electronic structure. Theoretical calculations show that in UCo0.8Ru0.2Al at least 148 Weyl nodes, and two nodal lines, exist within 60 millielectron volt of the Fermi level. This work demonstrates that magnetic actinide materials can host strong Nernst and Hall responses due to their combined correlated and topological nature.

Theoretical Results

ABSTRACTIn this paper we studied the thermoelectric power under classically large magnetic field (TPM) in quantum wells (QWs), quantum well wires (QWWS) and quantum dots (QDs) of Bi by formulating the respective electron dispersion laws. The TPM increases with increasing film thickness in an oscillatory manner in all the cases. The TPM in QD is greatest and the least for quantum wells respectively. The theoretical results are in agreement with the experimental observations as reported elsewhere.
