We investigate the thermoelectric properties of Fe/MgO/Fe(001) magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) by means of the linear-response theory combined with a first-principles-based Landauer-B\"uttiker approach. We find that the Seebeck coefficient…

We investigate transport and thermoelectric properties of hybrid systems based on a single-level quantum dot and one superconducting lead. The other lead is generally normal-metallic ferromagnet. In the latter case single-particle transport…

Two samples of the [Ca$_2$CoO$_{3-t}$]$_{0.62}$(CoO$_2$) misfit cobaltate, often denoted as the Ca$_{3}$Co$_{3.93}$O$_{9}$ phase, were prepared from the same ceramic material by the oxygen and argon annealing, resulting in different carrier…

The thermal spin-transfer torque (TSTT) is an effect to switch the magnetic free layer in a magnetic tunnel junction by a temperature gradient only. We present ab initio calculations of the TSTT. In particular, we discuss the influence of…

An important contribution to the thermoelectric and spin-caloric transport properties in magnetic materials at elevated temperatures is the formation of a spin-disordered state due to local moment fluctuations. This effect has not been…

Here, we have investigated the thermoelectric properties of FeMnScGa alloy by combined use of full potential linearized augmented plane-wave (FP-LAPW) method and Boltzmann transport theory implemented in Wien2K and BoltzTraP code,…

We theoretically investigate the Tunneling Anisotropic Magneto-Seebeck effect in a realistically-modeled CoPt|MgO|Pt tunnel junction using coherent transport calculations. For comparison we study the tunneling magneto-Seebeck effect in…

In this work, we study the conductance and the thermoelectric properties of a quantum dot embedded between two metallic leads with a side-coupled triple quantum dot molecule under a magnetic field. We focus on the spin polarization and…

In general, it is difficult to access the thermal conductivity of thin insulating films experimentally just by electrical means. Here, we present a new approach utilizing the tunnel magneto-Seebeck effect (TMS) in combination with…

Following the theoretical approach by Xiao et al [Phys. Rev. B 81, 214418 (2010)] to the spin Seebeck effect, we calculate the mean value of the total spin current flowing through a normalmetal/ ferromagnet interface. The spin current…

We study the thermal transport in magnetic tunnel junctions. Thermal gradients across the tunneling barrier appear around the Fowler-Nordheim tunneling regime, due to the current-induced heat caused by quantum interference. Both…

We show that graphene with Mn adatoms trapped at single vacancies feature spin-dependent Seebeck effect, thus enabling the use of this material for spin caloritronics. A gate potential can be used to tune its thermoelectric properties in a…

Employing the Monte-Carlo method and the exact diagonalization, we have investigated the temperature dependence of the thermoelectric power (TEP) for the double exchange model in the dilute carrier concentration limit. We have found that…

We present a comparison of the tunnel magneto-Seebeck effect for laser induced and intrinsic heating. Therefore, Co$_{40}$Fe$_{40}$B$_{20}$/MgAl$_2$O$_4$ and Co$_{25}$Fe$_{55}$B$_{20}$/MgO magnetic tunnel junctions have been prepared. The…

It has recently been proposed and experimentally demonstrated that it is possible to generate large thermoelectric effects in ferromagnet/superconductor structures due to a spin-dependent particle-hole asymmetry. Here, we theoretically show…

We develop a theory of the spin Seebeck effect (SSE) in paramagnets as well as in antiferromagnets at elevated temperatures where the classical limit of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem is applicable. Employing dissipative stochastic…

We report on the thermoelectric power $S(T)$, electrical resistivity and thermal conductivity measurements on the antiferromagnetic CeCoAl$_4$ compound. The N\'eel temperature of CeCoAl$_4$ is $T_N$=13.5K and a metamagnetic-like transition…

We present results of first-principles calculations on the transport properties, both under an electric field or a temperature gradient, in the Co/Cu multilayered systems. The various effects brought about by the changes in the…

Resistivity and thermoelectric power (TEP) measurements on CeFe$_2$ and two of its pseudo-binaries Ce(Fe, 5% Ir)$_2$ and Ce(Fe, 7% Ru)$_2$ between 78K and 275K are reported. The resistivity data are analysed in terms of contributions from…

We calculate the in-plane Seebeck coefficient of Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ within a framework combining electronic structure and dynamical mean-field theory. We show that its temperature-dependence is consistent with entropic considerations embodied in…
