The optimum configuration design of a nanostructured thermoelectric device with resonance tunneling
A nanostructured thermoelectric device is designed by connecting a double-barrier resonant tunneling heterostructure to two electron reservoirs. Based on Landauer's equation and Fermi-Dirac statistics, the exact solution of the heat flow is calculated. The maximum power output and efficiency ar...
