Abstract
Thermopower of a solid-state caterpillar Sinai billiard is experimentally
investigated. Observed commensurability oscillations of magnetothermopower are much
more pronounced than those of magnetoresistance. The magnetothermopower anomalies
are adequately described by the Mott formula for the hard-wall billiard model. Computer
simulation of a map, relating initial conditions of electrons, injected into the billiard to
corresponding outgoing probe, has made it possible to reveal specific trajectories responsible
for the observed features.
