Thermoelectric effects in a strongly interacting quantum dot coupled to ferromagnetic leads
arXiv:cond-mat/0602121 · doi:10.1016/j.physb.2006.01.355
Abstract
We study thermoelectric effects in Kondo correlated quantum dot coupled to ferromagnetic electrodes by calculating thermopower S in the Kondo regime as function of on-dot energy level and temperature. The system is represented by the Anderson model and the results agree well with those recently measured for a quantum dot coupled to nonmagnetic leads. For magnetic electrodes one observes marked dependence of S on the degree of their polarization.
