The thermoelectric effect For a semiconductor that follows the Maxwell Boltzmann statistics (non-degenerate

The thermoelectric effect is the direct conversion of temperature differences to electric voltage and vice versa. A thermoelectric device creates voltage when there is a different temperature on each side. Conversely, when a voltage is applied to it, it creates a temperature difference. At the atomic scale, an applied temperature gradient causes charge carriers in the material to diffuse from the hot side to the cold side.

For a semiconductor that follows the Maxwell Boltzmann statistics (non-degenerate

semiconductor), the Seebeck coefficient is a linear function of –ln(n), with n the electron

concentration [60].
