We report on a study of Seebeck coefficient and resistivity in the quasi-one-dimensional conductor (TMTSF)$_{2}$PF$_{6}$ extended deep into the Spin-Density-Wave(SDW) state. The metal-insulator transition at $T_{SDW}$ = 12 K leads to a…
These compounds have long been known as promising thermoelectric materials. Recently it was revealed, that they also have unconventional electronic topology. This renewed interest to the investigation of their transport properties. In order…
We present systematic theoretical results on thermoelectric effects in semimetals based on the variational method of the linearized Boltzmann equation. Inelastic electron-hole scattering is known to play an important role in the unusual…
The Seebeck effect describes the generation of an electric potential in a conducting solid exposed to a temperature gradient. Besides fundamental relevance in solid state physics, it serves as a key quantity to determine the performance of…
Identifying materials and devices which offer efficient thermoelectric effects at low temperature is a major obstacle for the development of thermal management strategies for low-temperature electronic systems. Superconductors cannot offer…
The potential of bulk black-phosphorus for thermoelectric applications has been experimentally studied. The Seebeck Coefficient (S) has been measured in the temperature range from 300 K to 385 K, finding a value of S = +335 +- 10 uV/K at…
Thermoelectric devices that utilize the Seebeck effect convert heat flow into electrical energy and are highly desirable for the development of portable, solid state, passively-powered electronic systems. The conversion efficiencies of such…
We report here metal to insulator transition, colossal Seebeck coefficient and ultralow thermal conductivity (0.0057th of its bulk value, significantly smaller than many well-known thermoelectric materials and silicon, showing potential…
We investigate basic properties of the thermopower (Seebeck coefficient) of phase-coherent conductors under the influence of dephasing and inelastic processes. Transport across the system is caused by a voltage bias or a thermal gradient…
Heavily doped semiconductors are by far the most studied class of materials for thermoelectric applications in the past several decades. They have Seebeck coefficient values which are 2-3 orders of magnitude higher than metals, making them…
The Seebeck and Peltier effects have been widely studied and used in various thermoelectric technologies, including thermal energy harvesting and solid-state heat pumps. However, basic and applied studies on the Thomson effect, another…
We study the dynamical thermoelectric transport in metals subjected to the electron-impurity and the electron-phonon interactions using the memory function formalism. We introduce a generalized Drude form for the Seebeck coefficient in…
The Seebeck coefficient of a metal is expected to display a linear temperature-dependence in the zero-temperature limit. To attain this regime, it is often necessary to cool the system well below 1K. We put under scrutiny the magnitude of…
W. Chr. Germs, K. Guo, R. A. J. Janssen, and M. Kemerink [1] recently measured the temperature and concentration dependent seebeck coefficient in organic thin film transistor and found the seebeck coefficient increases with carrier…
We study the influence of inelastic electron-electron scattering on the temperature variation of the Seebeck coefficient in the normal phase of quasi-one-dimensional organic superconductors. The theory is based on the numerical solution of…
Charge carriers that execute multi-phonon hopping generally interact strongly enough with phonons to form polarons. A polarons sluggish motion is linked to slowly shifting atomic displacements that severely reduce the intrinsic width of its…
Thermoelectricity was discovered almost two centuries ago in bismuth. The large and negative Seebeck coefficient of this semimetal remains almost flat between 300 K and 100 K. This striking feature can be understood by considering the ratio…
We study the Seebeck effect in the three-dimensional Dirac electron system based on the linear response theory with Luttinger's gravitational potential. The Seebeck coefficient $S$ is defined by $S = L_{12} / L_{11} T$, where $T$ is the…
We investigate the effect of electronic correlations onto the thermoelectricity of semi-conductors and insulators. Appealing to model considerations, we study various many-body renormalizations that enter the thermoelectric response. We…
We report measurements of the Seebeck effect in both the $ab$ plane ($S_{\rm a}$) and along the $c$ axis ($S_{\rm c}$) of the cuprate superconductor La$_{1.6-x}$Nd$_{0.4}$Sr$_{x}$CuO$_4$ (Nd-LSCO), performed in magnetic fields large enough…
