Thermal electric effects in Fe|GaAs|Fe tunnel junctions
We study the spin polarized thermoelectric effects on Fe|GaAs|Fe tunnel junction using a generalized Landauer-Büttiker formalism, where the energy flow is described on the same footing as the electric current. The Seebeck coefficient of tunnel junction will change sign as the GaAs thickness increase...
