Des décades de recherche sur la thermoélectricité, stimulée par le fait que le transport thermoélectrique aux échelles nanométriques et mésoscopiques pourrait améliorer le rendement de la conversion énergétique et la puissance délivrée, ont permis de découvrir récemment une nouvelle utilisation des effets thermoélectriques mésoscopiques. Nous présentons l'histoire et les motivations des recherches sur les effets thermoélectriques mésoscopiques inélastiques, ainsi que les perspectives ouvertes par ceux-ci.

Decades of research on thermoelectrics stimulated by the fact that nano- and meso-scale thermoelectric transport could yield higher energy conversion efficiency and output power has recently uncovered a new direction on inelastic thermoelectric effects. We introduce the history, motivation, and perspectives on mesoscopic inelastic thermoelectric effects.

The thermal conductance is defined under the condition of zero current, not zero voltage. This gives a (usually small) thermoelectric correction to the “bare” thermal conductance K0 that we calculate. We shall ignore this correction in the present section.
