Abstract

It is predicted that oscillations of temperature during propagation of third sound in a thin superfluid film cause appearance of an alternating electric field in the surrounding space (a peculiar non-stationary thermoelectric effect). The magnitude of this field depends significantly on the substrate type and the method of its coating. It is shown that the differential thermal EMF (the ratio of electric potential amplitude to the film temperature amplitude) can exceed such one in metals and reach $10^{-4}$ V/K.
