Notes:
It is pointed out that a determination of the temperature dependence of the Fermi cutoff in the conduction band of a metal provides a means of measuring the thermal emf of a single metal, as well as the absolute thermoelectric power, without use of a reference substance. The energy of the Fermi cutoff is determined by photoemission. The method is illustrated by a crude determination of the thermal emfs of copper and constantan.
