On the basis of the «bottom – up» approach of Landauer-Datta-Lundstrom transport model the basic equations of thermoelectricity with the corresponding transport coefficients for 1D conductors in the ballistic regime and 3D conductors in the diffusion regime with an arbitrary dispersion and for any size were strictly derived. The thermoelectric coefficients for 1D, 2D, and 3D semiconductors with parabolic dispersion in the ballistic and diffusive regimes are expressed through standard Fermi-Dirac integrals.
