Optimization of Thermoelectric Power Factor of Bilayer Graphene by Vertical Electric Field
JOURNAL OF THE PHYSICAL SOCIETY OF JAPAN(2021)
摘要
We theoretically investigated thermoelectric (TE) effects in bilayer graphene (BLG) in the presence of a vertical electric field E-perpendicular to based on linear response theory combined with a Green's function technique. We found that the room-temperature Seebeck coefficient S and power factor PF for a fixed E-perpendicular to have maximum values (S-max and PFmax) at certain chemical potentials, and that both S-max and PFmax monotonically increase with increasing E-perpendicular to in the weak-E-perpendicular to region. Moreover, we analyzed recent experiments on the chemical potential dependence of S and PF of BLG with E-perpendicular to= 0 finding that experimental results are nicely reproduced by introducing the energy-dependent relaxation time tau(epsilon) = z(infinity) +A/vertical bar epsilon vertical bar(r) where e = 0 is the charge-neutral point. By applying the energy-dependent relaxation time to the finite E-perpendicular to cases, we predict PFmax -20 mW/(K-2 m) at 300 K when E-perpendicular to= 0.35 V/nm, which is approximately three times larger than that in the case of E-perpendicular to= 0.
