Seebeck Coefficient

The Seebeck coefficient is the ratio of the induced thermoelectric voltage to the temperature difference between two points at an electrical conductor. 

The SI unit of the Seebeck coefficient is volts per Kelvin (V/K), although it is more often given in microvolts per Kelvin (μV/K). The use of materials with a high Seebeck coefficient is one of many important factors for the realization of efficient behavior in thermoelectric generators (high ZT-value).
