We investigate the thermoelectric and thermospin effects in a quantum ring whose arms are embedded by one protein-like single-helical molecule and one quantum dot, respectively. It shows that both the thermoelectric and thermospin effects are very distinct in this system. If one local magnetic flux is introduced through this ring, the thermospin effect can be efficiently enhanced, accompanied by the weakness of thermoelectric effect. Therefore, this work can be helpful for the achievement of the thermoelectric and thermospin effects, respectively.We investigate the thermoelectric and thermospin effects in a quantum ring whose arms are embedded by one protein-like single-helical molecule and one quantum dot, respectively.
