摘要：

We calculate the thermopower in NaxCoO2 using the standard Boltzmann transport theory and first principles electronic structures with spin polarization taken into account. The thermopower is found to be smaller when the system is polarized, which thereby provides an alternative reasonable explanation for the suppression of thermopower in a magnetic field. The role of the spin-orbit coupling on the thermoelectricity is also discussed.
