Example embodiments of the present invention provide the ability to control or set the electromotive force (emf) potential observed in an electronic component by adjusting the resistivity at conducting junctions within it. More specifically, at joints where emf potentials exist due to conducting materials of different types (e.g., two different metals), the resistivity of these conducting junctions is varied, which sets the overall polarity of the emf observed across the component itself. In other words, varying the resistivity at conducting junctions relative to one another, example embodiments control the polarity of the emf within the component itself. As such, the components may then be connected in series or other manner to reduce the overall emf potential induced into a system. |
