| Quantum dot as thermal rectifier (2007) | |||||||||
Abstract | |||||||||
| We report the observation of thermal rectification in a semiconductor quantum dot, as inferred from the asymmetric line shape of the thermopower oscillations. The asymmetry is observed at high in-plane magnetic fields and caused by the presence of a high orbital momentum state in the dot.. Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures | |||||||||
