Taking into account the electron-electron interaction effects we calculate the thermal conductivity and show that the Wiedemann-Franz law is violated for granular metals. We find that interaction effects suppress the thermal conductivity less than the electrical conductivity.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2005-02-01T08:34:09.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "granular metals", "thermal conductivity", "electron thermal transport", "large tunnel conductance", "electron-electron interaction effects" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
