Popis: All the previous homogeneous theories result in which are at variance with the experimental data. It is for this reason, previous theories have consistently used experimental value of in calculating thermopower tensor . The inhomogeneous and non-equilibrium formalism proposed by Dyakin et al. was generalized to including both transverse and longitudinal modes of electron-phonon interaction and considering the broadening of the Landau level. The resulting formula gives theoretical values of for GaAs/AlGaAs heterojunctions which are in accord with experimental data at oscillation phases but times smaller than experimental data for and where and are the phonon mean free path and effective thickness of the heterojunctions. By means of the semi-empirical formula of with extra factor in, phonon drag magnetothermopower can be calculated from theoretical values of and .
