Numerical Computation of Thermoelectric and Thermomagnetic Effects

by H. Okumura, S. Yamaguchi, H. Nakamura, K. Ikeda, K. Sawada.

Abstract: Phenomenological equations describing the Seebeck, Hall, Nernst, Peltier, Ettingshausen, and Righi-Leduc effects are numerically solved for the temperature, electric current, and electrochemical potential distributions of semiconductors under magnetic field. The results are compared to experiments.
