We discuss the thermoelectric properties assisted by the Fano effect of a parallel double quantum dot (QD) structure. By adjusting the couplings between the QDs and leads, we facilitate the nonresonant and resonant channels for the Fano interference. It is found that at low temperature, Fano lineshapes appear in the e…

An efficient tight-binding model including magnetism and spin-orbit interactions is extended to metallic alloys. The tight-binding parameters are determined from a fit to bulk ab initio calculations of each metal and rules are given to obtain the heteroatomic parameters. The spin and orbital magnetic moments as well a…
