Thermopower scaling in conducting polymers [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2020 AbstractBy directly converting heat into electricity, thermoelectric effects provide a unique physical process from heat waste to energy harvesting. Requiring the highest possible power factor defined as α2σ, with the thermopower α and the electrical conductivity σ, such a technology necessitates the best knowledge of transport phenomena in order to be

Photon-Assisted Seebeck Effect in a Quantum Dot Coupled to Majorana Zero Modes
Frontiers in Physics, 2021 The Seebeck effect is investigated within the framework of a non-equilibrium Green's function technique in a quantum dot (QD) sandwiched between the left and right leads held at different temperatures. We consider that the QD is shelled by a photon field

Excess Thermopower and the Theory of Thermopower Waves
ACS Nano, 2013 Self-propagating exothermic chemical reactions can generate electrical pulses when guided along a conductive conduit such as a carbon nanotube. However, these thermopower waves are not described by an existing theory to explain the origin of power generation or why its magnitude exceeds the predictions of the Seebeck effect.
