Hi everybody

I am new on the site, so please bear over me, if I posted this in the wrong forum.

I am looking for a good textbook in thermoelectricity. I am interested in the underlying physics and mathematics. Can anyone recommend a good one?

Best regards
Christian
 
1) Thermoelectricity: An Introduction to the Principles by D.K.C. MacDonald.
2) Thermoelectric and thermomagnetic effects and applications by Harman and Honig.


There are other, more recent textbooks. Some old papers are also a good resource. There are also books such as Physical properties of crystals by Nye which aren't focused on thermoelectricity but which nonetheless contain important information on thermoelectricity.

An extremely good textbook has yet to be written, in my opinion.
