The essence of the Seebeck effect: Free charge carriers at the hot end of the element have higher energies and velocities than at the cold there is a significant dependence of the concentration of free charge carriers in the semiconductor on the temperature at the hot end, the concentration of free charge carriers will be greater than at the cold this reason, the flow of free charge carriers from the hot end to the cold end will be greater than from the cold to the hot end. If the concentr
