Why the Seebeck effect is applicable only for dissimilar metal?
Interesting. Can you give me an example of dissimilar metals that can be used in the Seebeck effect?
Sure. An example of dissimilar metals used in the Seebeck effect is copper and constantan. Copper has a higher thermal conductivity, while constantan has a lower thermal conductivity but a higher electrical conductivity. When heated at one end and cooled at the other, a voltage is produced across the circuit due to the difference in temperature and the different conductive properties of the metals.
