Abstract:

Thermoelectric properties of graphenylene nanotubes with encapsulated C60 fullerenes are studied by means of the DFT-based calculations. The electrical and thermal conductivities, Peltier and Seebeck coefficients, and thermoelectric figure of merit ZT are estimated for different distances between fullerenes and various chirality of graphenylene nanotubes.
