To improve the thermoelectric performance of molecular junctions formed by polyaromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) cores, we present a new strategy for enhancing their Seebeck coefficient by utilizing connectivities with destructive quantum interference combined with heteroatom substitution. Starting from the parent PAH, with a vanishing mid-gap Seebeck coefficient, we demonstrate that the corresponding daughter molecule obtained after heteroatom substitution possesses a non-zero, mid-gap Seebeck coefficient. For the first time, we demonstrate a “bi-thermoelectric” property, where for a given heteroatom and parent PAH, the sign of the mid-gap Seebeck coefficient depends on connectivity and therefore the daughter can exhibit both positive and negative Seebeck coefficients. This bi-thermoelectric property is important for the design of tandem thermoelectric devices, where materials with both positive and negative Seebeck coefficients are utilized to boost the thermovoltage. Simple parameter-free rules for predicting the Seebeck coefficient of such molecules are presented, which form a powerful tool for designing efficient molecular thermoelectric devices.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
