Giant thermoelectric effects in a proximity-coupled superconductor–ferromagnet device

Giant thermoelectric effects in a proximity-coupled superconductor–ferromagnet device

The usually negligibly small thermoelectric effects in superconducting heterostructures can be boosted dramatically due to the simultaneous effect of spin splitting and spin filtering. Building on an idea of our earlier work (Machon et al 2013 Phys. Rev. Lett. http://dx.doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.1...
