We attribute this enhancement effect not to the long-predicted 1D subband effects but to quantum-dot-like states that form in electrostatically nonuniform nanowires as a result of interference between propagating states and 0D resonances. 2016-02-18 22:18:09 InAs NanowiresWe report InAs nanowires power factor enhancement effect 0 D resonances interference subband 20 K electrostatically nonuniform nanowires bulk propagating states magnitude Large Thermoelectric Power Factor Enhancement Observed model
