Abstract

We study thermal rectification of a two-quantum-dots system with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction and coupling to two bosonic reservoirs. Compared with other proposals (Zhang et al., 2009 [9]), our model can offer larger rectification efficiency through different modulations in small size systems (N=2).
