Nous passons en revue les dévelopements récents relatifs au transport au travers de nanostructures et de systèmes mésoscopiques, engendré par des combinaisons de gradients de température et/ou de potentiel. Les conducteurs de basses dimensions constituent d'excellents systèmes pour étudier les dynamiques thermoélectrique et thermique au-delà de la réponse linéaire, une petite différence de température engendrant de forts gradients thermiques du fait des petites tailles. Nous présentons une théorie basée sur une approche de scattering pour illustrer les différences entre les régimes de transport linéaire et non linéaire. Nous discutons des expériences récentes sur des boîtes quantiques ou des jonctions moléculaires soumises à de fortes différences de température. Des prédictions théoriques relatives à l'effet Kondo et à la rectification du transport thermique sont brièvement examinées. Un point important est le calcul des rendements thermoélectriques en présence de non-linéarités. Nous coinsidérons aussi des effets Seebeck croisés avec du filtrage de spin non linéaire qui se produisent dans des supraconducteurs et des isolants topologiques, et le mélange des bruits de courant de charge et de chaleur. Finalement, nous discutons les directions futures possibles dans ce domaine.

We review recent developments in nonlinear quantum transport through nanostructures and mesoscopic systems driven by thermal gradients or in combination with voltage biases. Low-dimensional conductors are excellent platforms for analyzing both the thermoelectric and heat dynamics beyond the linear response because, due to their small size, a small temperature difference applied across regions gives rise to large thermal biases. We offer a theoretical discussion based on the scattering approach to highlight the differences between the linear and the nonlinear regimes of transport. We discuss recent experiments on quantum dots and molecular junctions subjected to strong temperature differences. Theoretical predictions concerning the Kondo effect and heat rectification proposals are briefly examined. An important issue is the calculation of thermoelectric efficiencies including nonlinearities. Cross Seebeck effects and nonlinear spin filtering arise in superconductors and topological insulators, while mixed noises between charge and heat currents are also considered. Finally, we provide an outlook on the possible future directions of the field.
