- Abstract
- Recently, interconnected nanowire networks have been found suitable as flexiblemacroscopic spin caloritronic devices.The 3D nanowire networks are fabricated by directelectrodeposition in track-etched polymer templates with crossed nano-channels. This techniqueallows the fabrication of crossed nanowires consisting of both homogeneous ferromagnetic metals andmultilayer stack with successive layers of ferromagnetic and non-magnetic metals, with controlledmorphology and material composition. The networks exhibit extremely high, magnetically modulatedthermoelectric power factors. Moreover, large spin-dependent Seebeck coefficients were directlyextracted from experimental measurements on multilayer nanowire networks. This work provides asimple and cost-effective way to fabricate large-scale flexible and shapeable thermoelectric devicesexploiting the spin degree of freedom.
