Aharonov-Bohm-type oscillations of thermopower in a quantum-dot ring geometry
Aharonov-Bohm-type oscillations of thermopower in a quantum-dot ring geometry
We investigate Aharonov-Bohm-type oscillations of the thermopower of a quantum dot embedded in a ring for the case when the interaction between electrons can be neglected. The thermopower is shown to be strongly flux dependent, and typically the amplitude of oscillations exceeds the background value. It is also shown to …
