Complete mapping of the thermoelectric properties of a single molecule

Theoretical studies suggest that mastering the thermocurrent through single molecules can lead to thermoelectric energy harvesters with unprecedentedly high efficiencies.1,2,3,4,5,6 This can be achieved by engineering molecule length,7 optimizing the tunnel coupling strength of molecules via chemica...
