The major challenge of spintronics lies in how to generate, manipulate, and detect spin current. Multiple methods, such as using magnetic materials, magnetic field, and polarized light field to manipulate the spin of electrons, have been proposed. Owing to the possible applications in spintronic devices, there is currently great interest in the field of spin caloritronics, which focuses on the interplay of spin and heat currents. Stanene is a type of two-dimensional topological insulator consisting of a single layer of Sn atoms arranged in a hexagonal lattice. In this paper, the effects of light and electric fields on the spin-dependent thermoelectric effect of the stanene nanoribbon are studied theoretically based on the non-equilibrium Green’s function method. The results show that the properties and intensity of the thermoelectric current can be effectively controlled by the intensity and the polarization direction of the circularly polarized light field. Under the joint action of a strong circularly-polarized light field and an electric field, the stanene can transform from a quantum spin-Hall insulator into a spin-polarized quantum Hall insulator. When the left-circularly-polarized light field is applied, the spin-down edge states of stanene undergo a phase transition to form a bandgap, and a 100% spin-polarized spin-down current driven by temperature gradient can be obtained. When the right-circularly-polarized light is applied, the edge states of spin-up electrons are destroyed, and a completely polarized spin-up thermal current can be generated. In the weak external field, the properties of the edge state do not change, and the system does not output a thermoelectric current. In addition, the study shows that the intensity of the thermal spin current is related to the width of the bandgap, and a moderate increase in temperature can significantly increase the peak value of the current, but the higher equilibrium temperature and temperature gradient will restrain the spin thermoelectric effect.
