Abstract

We report on the experimental observation of nonlocal spin-dependent thermoelectric effects in superconductor-ferromagnet multiterminal structures. Our samples consist of a thin superconducting aluminum wire with several ferromagnetic tunnel junctions attached to it. When a thermal excitation is applied to one of the junctions in the presence of a Zeeman splitting of the density of states of the superconductor, a thermoelectric current is observed in remote junctions at distances exceeding $10~\mathrm{\mu m}$. The results can be explained by recent theories of coupled spin and heat transport in high-field superconductors.
