Abstract
We report on the first molecular device of heat pump modeled by a T-shape Frenkel-Kontorova lattice. The system is a three-terminal device with the important feature that the heat can be pumped from the low-temperature region to the high-temperature region through the third terminal. The pumping action is achieved by applying a stochastic external force that periodically modulates the atomic temperature. The temperature, the frequency and the system size dependence of heat pump are briefly discussed.
