We point out a relation between the dissipative spin-transfer-torque parameter $\beta$ and the contribution of magnon drag to the thermoelectric power in conducting ferromagnets. Using this result we estimate $\beta$ in iron at low…

Quantized spin-wave known as magnon, a bosonic quasiparticle, can drag electrons or holes via sd exchange interaction and boost the thermopower over the conventional diffusive thermopower. P-type magnon-drag thermopower has been observed in…

A temperature gradient applied to a ferromagnetic metal induces not only independent flows of electrons and magnons but also drag currents because of their mutual interaction. In this paper, we present a microscopic study of the electron…

A theoretical study of the magnon-drag Peltier and Seebeck effects in ferromagnetic metals is presented. A magnon heat current is described perturbatively from the microscopic viewpoint with respect to electron--magnon interactions and the…

Thermoelectric effects in spintronics are gathering increasing attention as a means of managing heat in nanoscale structures and of controlling spin information by using heat flow. Thermal magnons (spin-wave quanta) are expected to play a…

We present experimental evidence for the simultaneous existence of the magnons and spin-state transition contributions to the heat capacity in ferromagnetic (FM) Cr-doped MnTe (Tc~280K), where the magnon heat capacity is attributed to the…

Magnon drag effect induced by an applied electric field in ferromagnetic metals is theoretically studied by a microscopic calculation of the force on magnons arising from magnon emission/absorption and scattering due to driven electrons. It…

The thermoelectric properties of single- and polycrystalline FeGa3 are systematically investigated over a wide temperature range. At low temperatures, below 20 K, previously not known pronounced peaks in the thermal conductivity (400-800 W…

This article reviews the principles that govern the combined transport of spin, heat, and charge. The extensive thermodynamic quantity associated with spin transport is the magnetization; its Onsager-conjugate force is in general the…

To understand the unexpectedly high thermoelectric performance observed in the thin-film Heusler alloy Fe$_2$V$_{0.8}$W$_{0.2}$Al, we study the magnon drag effect, generated by the tungsten based impurity band, as a possible source of this…

The thermopower and Nernst-Ettingshausen (NE) effect in degenerate semiconductors and semimetals placed in high electric and magnetic fields are calculated by taking into account the heating of both electrons and phonons as well as their…

A large, strongly temperature-dependent Nernst coefficient, $\nu$, is observed between $T$ = 2 K and 300 K for CeCu$_2$Si$_2$ and Ce$_{0.8}$La$_{0.2}$Cu$_2$Si$_2$. The enhanced $\nu(T)$ is determined by the asymmetry of the on-site Kondo…

Diamond is one of the most studied materials because of its unique combination of remarkable electrical, mechanical, thermal and optical properties. Using a fully self-consistent ab initio theory of coupled electron-phonon transport, we…

We develop a theory for spin transport in magnetic metals that treats the contribution of magnons and electrons on equal footing. As an application we consider thermally-driven spin injection across an interface between a magnetic metal and…

Magnon excitations in antiferromagnetic materials and their physical implications enable novel device concepts not available in ferromagnets, emerging as a new area of active research. A unique characteristic of antiferromagnetic magnons is…

Thermoelectric modules are a promising approach to energy harvesting and efficient cooling. In addition to the longitudinal Seebeck effect, recently transverse devices utilizing the anomalous Nernst effect (ANE) have attracted interest. For…

This letter calculates the contribution of electron-phonon interaction to thermoelectric effects in graphene. One considers the case of free standing graphene taking into account interaction with intrinsic acoustic phonons. The temperatures…

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…

Quantized spin waves, or magnons, in a magnetic insulator are assumed to interact weakly with the surroundings, and to flow with little dissipation or drag, producing exceptionally long diffusion lengths and relaxation times. In analogy to…

The thermopower and Nernst effect were investigated for undoped parent compounds LaFeAsO and LaNiAsO. Both thermopower and Nernst signal in iron-based LaFeAsO are significantly larger than those in nickel-based LaNiAsO. Furthermore, abrupt…
