Giant thermoemf in multiterminal superconductor/normal metal mesoscopic structures

We considered a mesoscopic superconductor/normal metal (S/N) structure in which the N reservoirs are maintained at different temperatures. It is shown that in the absence of current between the N reservoirs a voltage difference $V_T$ arises between the superconducting and normal conductors. The voltage $V_T$ oscillates with increasing phase difference $\varphi$ between the superconductors, and its magnitude does not depend on the small parameter $(T\mathrm{/}{ϵ}_F)\mathrm{.}$
