We study the magnetotransport and the magneto-thermoelectric properties of Co/Cu multilayer devices in a lateral thermal gradient. We derive values of the Seebeck coefficient, the thermoelectric figure of merit, and the thermoelectric power factor. The Seebeck coefficient reaches values up to -18 microvolt/K at room temperature and shows a magnetic field dependence up to 28.6 % upon spin reversal.
