You will have to make a list of available materials and then
determine the Seebeck voltage for each pairing. Start with
materials that have large differences between Seebeck
coefficients. Here are the Seebeck coefficients of some
common materials in millivolts per degrees C at at 0 degrees C:

Aluminum 3.5
Iron 19.0
Lead 4.0
Carbon 3.0
Nickel -15.0
Copper 6.5


Microvolts, actually.
