论文摘要

在本文中,我们展示了横向热电产生的基础知识和最新进展,其中沿垂直于施加的温度梯度的方向生成热电器。横向热电学生成是凝结物理物理学中的核心主题之一,可以是解决热电发电机中长期存在的技术问题的突破性方法。我们在这里审查了当前已知的六种驾驶机制:普通的Nernst效果,异常的Nernst效果,Goniopolar材料,自旋Seebeck效果,Seebeck驱动的横向热电学生成,以及($ P \ times n $) - 类型的多层。本文总结了这些横向热电效应的原理和功能,并讨论了它们作为“未来能量”的潜力。

In this article, we show fundamentals and recent advances on the transverse thermoelectric generation, in which a thermopower is generated in the direction perpendicular to an applied temperature gradient. Transverse thermoelectric generation is one of the central topics in condensed matter physics, and can be a breakthrough approach to solve long-standing technological problems with contact resistances in thermoelectric generators. We review here the six currently known driving mechanisms: the ordinary Nernst effect, the anomalous Nernst effect, goniopolar materials, the spin Seebeck effect, Seebeck-driven transverse thermoelectric generation, and ($p \times n$)-type multilayers. This article summarizes the principles and functionalities of these transverse thermoelectric effects and discusses their potential as "Future energy".
