Conclusion
In this paper, we have analytically investigated EC in cylindrical quantum wire. The electronoptical phonon interaction is taken into account at both low and high temperatures. We expose the
analytical expression of the coefficient EC in CQWIP. The results have been evaluated in
GaAs/Al:GaAs CQWIP to see the EC's dependence on electromagnetic wave, temperature, magnetic
field.
The results showed that the EC increases linearly with temperature and the EC has a positive
value, quite similar to the bulk semiconductors but the EC is not as strong as in the bulk cases.
When surveying the dependence of EC on magnetic field, we saw the appearance of Shubnikov–
de Haas oscillations in strong magnetic field domain. Moreover, the impact of EMW is remarkable
since the EC value in case of EMW is almost double than the case without EMW.
When we studied the dependence of EC on EMW frequency, we noted that EC oscillates in strong
magnetic field condition. The stronger magnetic field is the taller EC oscillation peak is and bigger
EMW frequency value at resonant peak is.

Abstract: This paper studies the influence of a strong electromagnetic wave (EMW) on the
magneto-thermoelectric effects in a cylindrical quantum wire with an infinite potential (CQWIP)
(for electron - optical phonon scattering) under the influence of electric field 𝑬𝟏 = (0,0, 𝐸1),
magnetic field 𝑩 = (0, 𝐵, 0) and a strong EMW (laser radiation) 𝑬 = (0,0, 𝐸0𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑡) (where 𝐸0
and are amplitude and frequency of EMW, respectively), based on the quantum kinetic equation
for electrons. The study obtained the analytic expressions for the kinetic tensors 𝜎𝑖𝑘 , 𝛽𝑖𝑘 , 𝛾𝑖𝑘 , 𝜉𝑖𝑘
and the Ettingshausen coefficient (EC) in the CQWIP with the dependence on the frequency, the
amplitude of EMW, the Quantum Wire (CQWIP) parameters, the magnetic field and the temperature.
The study results were numerically evaluated and graphed for GaAs/GaAsAl quantum wire. Then, the
results in this case were compared with those in the case of the bulk semiconductors and other low-
dimension systems in order to show the difference and the novelty of the current results. Moreover, it is
realized that as the EMW frequency increases, the EC fluctuates with a stable trend, and the appearance
of the Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscillations pattern when the dependence of EC on the magnetic field
is surveyed.
Keywords: Quantum wire, Ettingshausen effect, electron-optical phonons cattering, quantum

1. Introduction
In recent years, the semiconductor materials have been widely used in electronics. The
development of semiconductor electronics is mainly based on the phenomenon of contact p-n and the
doped ability to alter the physical properties of crystals. The particle motion is limited along specific

coordinates within a tiny area of less than hundreds Å. If the size of the area is comparable with
Debroglie wavelength of the particle, the energy spectrum and wave function will be quantized. Then,
the size effect appeared and makes almost physical properties of material change [1]. The properties of
low-dimension system such as: Hall effect [2-4], absorption of electromagnetic waves, relative
magnetoresistance, etc [5-8] are very different from the previous work studied on bulk semiconductor
[9-12]. The magneto-thermoelectric effect, often called as Ettingshausen effect, which has just been
researched in bulk semiconductors [13-16] is one of the electrical, magnetic and thermal effects of
semiconductor systems. Furthermore, the magneto-thermoelectric effect in low-dimension systems has
just been studied in two-dimension system (quantum well) [17-19]. Due to the fact that the electron’s
energy spectrum and single wave function in two-dimension systems are different from the case of
one-dimension systems, the Ettingshausen effect characterizes in each case lead us to separated
results. The Ettingshausen effect has also been researched on the rectangular quantum wire by using
the quantum method (quantum kinetic equation). However, this quantum effect has not been studied in
cylindrical quantum wire with different cases of confined potential.
So, in order to accomplish the Ettingshausen quantum theory in low-dimension semiconductor
systems, we use the quantum kinetic equation to calculate the EC in CQWIP, which is used a lot in
studies about one-dimension system, under the influence of electromagnetic wave. We have
discovered some differences between the results obtained in this case and those in the case of the bulk
semiconductors. Numerical calculations are carried out with a specifically cylindrical quantum wire
GaAs/GaAs:Al. To the limitation in others low-dimension system, we obtained the results close to
previous studies. Then, when surveying the EC in some parameters, we explored the new which is
only acquired in our work.
2. Calculation of Ettingshausen coefficient in cylindrical quantum wire in the presence of
electromagnetic wave
In this report, we consider a cylindrical quantum wire of the normalization radius 𝑅 with the
infinite confined potential (V(r⃗) = 0, 𝑟 ≤ 𝑅 and V(𝑟) = ∞, r > R) elsewhere subjected to a crossed
electric field 𝑬𝟏 = (0,0, 𝐸1) and magnetic field 𝑩 = (0, 𝐵, 0) in the presence of a strong EMW (laser
radiation) characterized by electric field 𝑬 = (0,0, 𝐸0𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑡).

Here: 𝜅, 𝜒0,𝜒∞, 𝜀𝐹, 𝐿 and 𝑘𝐵 are the electric constant, the static dielectric constant, the high
frequency dielectric constant, the Fermi level, normalization length and the Boltzmann constant,
respectively. From these above expressions, we see that the EC expression in the CQW is more
complicated than that in the bulk semiconductor. We also found that the difference in the energy
spectrum, the wave function and the presence of electromagnetic waves which lead to this complexity. In
the next step, we study quantum wire of GaAs/GaAs:Al to see clearly the dependence mentioned above.
3. Numerical results and discussion
In this section, we present detailed numerical calculations of the EC in a CQW subjected to the
uniform crossed magnetic and electric fields in the presence of a strong EMW. For the numerical
evaluation, we consider the C QW of GaAs/GaAs:Al with the parameters[7,8]: 𝜀𝐹 = 50𝑚𝑒𝑉, 𝑚 =
0.067𝑚0 (𝑚0 is mass of a free electron), 𝜏 = 10
−12𝑠, 𝐿 = 10−9𝑚.
Figure 1 shows the dependence of the EC on the magnetic field in two cases: with and without the
presence of electromagnetic waves. From the graph, we see that the oscillation appears which is
controlled by the ratio of the Fermi energy level and cyclotron energy level. Literally, the appearance
of the oscillation is the influence of De Haas-van Alphen effect [20]. Moreover, the effect of
electromagnetic waves on the EC is clearly observed. The value of the EC is the same in the domain
with strong magnetic field (above 0.125 (𝑇)) and it is very different in the 0.1(𝑇) to 0.125(𝑇)
magnetic field domain. In particular, the blue dashed line fluctuates and reaches the resonant point
while B is just under 0.11 (𝑇) with the negative value of −8 (𝐾. 𝑚. (𝑇. 𝐴)ˆ(−1)), almost doubles than
the red line case (without EMW). In other domains of magnetic B, the EC value of both cases are
approximately the same and oscillations as the magnetic B increases.

In figure 2, the EC depends linearly on the temperature with a positive slope coefficient but the
value of EC is smaller compared to the bulk semiconductors cases. This result is due to the difference
in structure, wave function and energy spectrum of CQWIP in comparison with the bulk
semiconductors. Also, the presence of electromagnetic waves influence on the EC is quite remarkable,
the EC value is the same in the domain of low temperature and have different values in the region with
higher temperatures. This result is consistent with those previously reported by using Boltzmann
kinetic equation [1]. However, Boltzmann kinetic equation applies only in high temperature
conditions, which is the limitation of the Boltzmann kinetic equation. So, we use quantum equations to
overcome the above limitations.

Figure 3. The dependence of Ettingshausen coefficient on the EMW frequency
Figure 3 shows the dependence of EC on the EMW frequency with 𝛺 = 0 ÷ 100(𝑇𝐻𝑧). As can
be seen form the graph, the EC oscillates in strong magnetic field condition. In each case of magnetic
field, the EC reach a peak with specific value of EMW frequency. When magnetic field value
increases, both EC peak value and the peak position of 𝛺 tends to upwards. This result is similar to the
results found in rectangular quantum wire but the depend of EC on 𝛺 is more significant and the
impact of the magnetic field B is different. In this case, at the same point of B, the value of EC is
stronger than the EC in the RQW. This can be easily explained by the unalike physical expressions of
energy spectrum and single wave function in two different quantum wires.
4. Conclusion
In this paper, we have analytically investigated EC in cylindrical quantum wire. The electron-
optical phonon interaction is taken into account at both low and high temperatures. We expose the
analytical expression of the coefficient EC in CQWIP. The results have been evaluated in
GaAs/Al:GaAs CQWIP to see the EC's dependence on electromagnetic wave, temperature, magnetic
field.
The results showed that the EC increases linearly with temperature and the EC has a positive
value, quite similar to the bulk semiconductors but the EC is not as strong as in the bulk cases.
When surveying the dependence of EC on magnetic field, we saw the appearance of Shubnikov–
de Haas oscillations in strong magnetic field domain. Moreover, the impact of EMW is remarkable
since the EC value in case of EMW is almost double than the case without EMW.
When we studied the dependence of EC on EMW frequency, we noted that EC oscillates in strong
magnetic field condition. The stronger magnetic field is the taller EC oscillation peak is and bigger
EMW frequency value at resonant peak is.
