[Audio] Near-Equilibrium Transport: Fundamentals and Applications Mark Lundstrom

Near-equilibrium transport in graphene as an example of how to apply the concepts in lectures 1-8.

Semi-classical carrier transport is traditionally described by the Boltzmann Transport Equation (BTE). In this lecture, we present theBTE, show how it is solved, and relate it to the Landauer Approach usedin these lectures

This lecture is an introduction to phonon transport. Key similarities and differences between electron and phonon transport are discussed.

Beginning with the general model for transport, we mathematically deriveexpressions for the four thermoelectric transport coefficients:(i) Electrical conductivity,(ii) Seebeck coefficient (or "thermopower"),(iii) Peltier coefficient,(iv) Electronic heat conductivity.

In this lecture, we show how the mean-free-path (mfp) is related to thetime between scattering events and briefly discuss how the scattering time is related to underlying physical processes.

A brief introduction to commonly-used techniques, such as van der Pauw and Hall effect measurements.
