We examine the temperature dependence of thermopower in the single band Hubbard model using dynamical mean-field theory. The strong Coulomb interaction brings about the coherent-to-incoherent crossover as temperature increases. As a result,…
We investigated size effects on thermoelectricity in thin films of a strongly correlated layered cobaltate. At room temperature, the thermopower is independent of thickness down to 6 nm. This unusual behavior is inconsistent with the…
In this paper we explore the different mechanisms that affect the thermopower of a band insulating perovskite (in this case, SrTiO$_3$) when subject to strain (both compressive or tensile). We analyze the high temperature, entropy dominated…
We present low-temperature heat and charge transport as well as caloric properties of a ThAsSe single crystal. An extra -AT1/2 term in the electrical resistivity, independent of magnetic fields as high as 14 T, provides evidence for an…
Kondo insulator like material FeSb2 was found to exhibit colossal Seebeck coefficient. It would have had huge potential in thermoelectric applications in cryogenic temperature range if it had not been for the large thermal conductivity.…
Heat-to-charge conversion efficiency of thermoelectric materials is closely linked to the entropy per charge carrier. Thus, magnetic materials are promising building blocks for highly efficient energy harvesters, as their carrier entropy is…
Superconductivity has been first observed in TlNi$_2$Se$_2$ at T$_C$=3.7 K and appears to involve heavy electrons with an effective mass $m^*$=14$\sim$20 $m_b$, as inferred from the normal state electronic specific heat and the upper…
Thermoelectric properties of monolayer indium selenide (InSe) are investigated by using Boltzman transport theory and first-principles calculations as a function of Fermi energy and crystal orientation. We find that the maximum power factor…
A TiS$_{2}$ crystal with a layered structure was found to have a large thermoelectric power factor.The in-plane power factor $S^{2}/ \rho$ at 300 K is 37.1~$\mu$W/K$^{2}$cm with resistivity ($\rho$) of 1.7 m$\Omega$cm and thermopower ($S$)…
We investigated the effect of pressure on the magnetic and thermoelectric properties of Sr$_{3.1}$Y$_{0.9}$Co$_{4}$O$_{10+\delta }$. The magnetization is reduced with the application of pressure, reflecting the spin-state modification of…
We calculate the thermopower of a quantum dot described by two doublets hybridized with two degenerate bands of two conducting leads, conserving orbital (band) and spin quantum numbers, as a function of the temperature $T$ and a splitting…
We report the detailed investigation of the magnetic, transport, and magnetocaloric effects of GdSbSe by magnetic susceptibility $\chi(T)$, isothermal magnetization $M(H)$, resistivity $\rho(T, H)$, and heat capacity $C_p(T)$ measurements,…
The longitudinal thermopower of ultra-high mobility two-dimensional electrons has been measured at both zero magnetic field and at high fields in the compressible metallic state at filling factor $\nu = 3/2$ and the incompressible…
We have measured temperature dependence of thermoelectric power (TEP) on MgB$_2$ superconductor under hydrostatic pressure. The sign and temperature dependence of TEP shows metallic hole carriers are dominant with activation type…
Earlier studies on the Kondo insulator SmB6 reveal the presence of a bulk Kondo insulating gap between 30 - 50 K, and the emergence of a conducting surface state only below 4 K. Here, we compare the two-coil mutual inductance pick-up…
This is the first study of the effect of pressure on transition metal dichalcogenides intercalated by atoms that order magnetically. Co$_{1/3}$NbS$_2$ is a layered system where the intercalated Co atoms order antiferromagnetically at T$_N$…
We have measured diffusion thermopower in a two-dimensional electron gas at low temperature ($T$=40 mK) in the field range 0 $<B<$ 3.4 T, by employing the current heating technique. A Hall bar device is designed for this purpose, which…
KMgBi single crystals are grown by using the Bi flux successfully. KMgBi shows semiconducting behavior with a metal-semiconductor transition at high temperature region and a resistivity plateau at low temperature region, suggesting KMgBi…
We present the thermopower of EuCd2P2, a material which exhibits a large resistivity peak with significant magnetic field dependence in the temperature range of 10-25 K. In the same region we observe a highly unusual behavior of the…
We found that whisker crystals of Mo-doped Nb4SiTe4 show high thermoelectric performances at low temperatures, indicated by the largest power factor of 70 microW cm-1 K-2 at 230-300 K, much larger than those of Bi2Te3-based practical…
