“…In 2009, Y Dubi and his fellows firstly researched the spin Seebeck effect in quantum dots (QDs) coupled to ferromagnetic leads [7]. While the direction of the magnetic field is parallel to the spin polarized direction, a non-zero spin flow would be generated with no charge current, and by adjusting the gate voltage of the QD, thermal-to-spin transformation efficiency can exceed the thermal-to-electron conversion efficiency: in 2012, Bai et al [8] ignored the magnetic field of the QDs based on the model built by Dubi et al and discussed the spin accumulation in QDs caused by thermal bias; in 2011 Wierzbicki et al [9], and in 2012 Karwacki et al [10], studied the thermal spin effect in two-level QDs. In the same year, while considering the impact of non-collinear ferromagnet leads on the thermoelectric effect of double QDs, Jun et al [11] concluded that thermal-to-spin transformation efficiency could be significantly enhanced.…”
