Abstract
The Nernst–Ettingshausen coefficient is calculated in superlattices with the cosine dispersion law in the case of the scattering of charge carriers at acoustic and polar optical phonons in a magnetic field in the layer plane. A significant increase in the Nernst–Ettingshausen coefficient of a degenerate quasi-three-dimensional electron gas in a weak magnetic field is shown. For polar optical-phonon scattering, the Nernst–Ettingshausen coefficient changes sign in a strong magnetic field.
