A simple model describing the Nernst-Ettingshausen effect (NEE) in two-component electronic liquids is formulated. The examples considered include graphite, where the normal and Dirac fermions coexist, superconductor in fluctuating regime, with coexisting Cooper pairs and normal electrons, and the inter-stellar plasma of electrons and protons. We give a general expression for the Nernst constant and show that the origin of a giant NEE is in the strong dependence of the chemical potential on temperature in all cases.

We study electronic transport in graphene under the influence of a transversal magnetic field $f{B}(f{r})=B(x)f{e}_z$ with the asymptotics $B(xtopminfty)=pm B_0$, which could be realized via a folded graphene sheet in a constant magnetic field, for e xample. By solving the effective Dirac equation, we find robust modes with a finite energy gap which propagate along the fold -- where particles and holes move in opposite directions. Exciting these particle-hole pairs with incident photons would then generate a nearly perfect charge separation and thus a strong magneto-thermoelectric (Nernst-Ettingshausen) or magneto-photoelectric effect -- even at room temperature.

We calculate the Nernst signal directly in the phenomenological two-dimensional XY model. The obtained numerical results are consistent with the experimental observations in some high-Tc cuprate superconductors qualitatively, where the vortex Nernst signal has a characteristic tilt-hill profile. It is suggested that the excitations of vortex and anti-vortex in 2D is the possible origin of the anomalous Nernst effect.
We investigate whether there could exist topological invariants of gapped 2D materials related to dissipationless thermoelectric transport at low temperatures. We give both macroscopic and microscopic arguments showing that thermoelectric transport c oefficients vanish in the limit of zero temperature and thus topological invariants arise only from the electric Hall conductance and the thermal Hall conductance. Our arguments apply to systems with arbitrarily strong interactions. We also show that there is no analog of the Thouless pump for entropy.
The ideal reversible thermodynamic cycle visualization of the Nernst effect in Laughlin geometry, excluding the kinetic contribution is proposed. The Ettingshausen effect is also treated in the fashion using the reverse cycle. The corresponding value s of the off-diagonal thermoelectric coefficients are expressed through the ratio of the entropy budget per magnetic flux. Our approach enlightens the profound thermodynamic origin of the relation between the Nernst effect and magnetization currents.
We study the Nernst effect and the spin Nernst effect, that a longitudinal thermal gradient induces a transverse voltage and a spin current. A mesoscopic four-terminal cross-bar device having the Rashba spin-orbit interaction (SOI) under a perpendicu lar magnetic field is considered. For zero SOI, the Nernst coefficient peaks when the Fermi level crosses the Landau Levels. In the presence of the SOI, the Nernst peaks split, and the spin Nernst effect appears and exhibits a series of oscillatory structures. The larger SOI is or the weaker magnetic field is, the more pronounced the spin Nernst effect is. The results also show that the Nernst and spin Nernst coefficients are sensitive to the detailed characteristics of the sample and the contacts. In addition, the Nernst effect is found to survive in strong disorder than the spin Nernst effect does.
