1. Thermoelectric Ba8Ga16Ge30 clathrates for waste heat recovery
Sammanfattning : The modern, highly industrialized, society of today requires huge amounts of energy to function. This has resulted in a heavy dependence on the very energy efficient fossil fuels, a source of energy which of course is not infinite and we are slowly approaching the day when oil runs out. LÄS MER
2. Synthesis and Characterization of New Inorganic Thermoelectric Materials
Sammanfattning : With thermoelectric materials it is possible to convert a difference in temperature into electrical energy. This can be utilized for a more efficient use of available energy, eg. by converting waste heat from a combustion process. LÄS MER
3. Synthesis and Characterization of Composite Materials for Thermoelectric Power Generation
Sammanfattning : In a thermoelectric material, a temperature difference will give rise to an electric potential that is proportional to the temperature gradient. In a closed circuit, this potential can keep a current flowing as long as the temperature gradient is maintained. LÄS MER
4. New Materials for Environmental Applications:Thermoelectrics and Low-Temperature Oxidation Catalysts
Sammanfattning : New materials have been researched for environmental applications as thermoelectrics and low-temperature oxidation catalysts. One of the main objectives of this thesis was to prepare and characterize new efficient thermoelectric materials (TM’s). LÄS MER
5. Improving Thermoelectric Properties of Inorganic Clathrates by Atomic and Microscale Structure Engineering
Sammanfattning : As more countries are aiming for a carbon-neutral economy, technologies that utilize renewable energies are increasingly being considered. Thermoelectric materials enable the direct conversion between a thermal gradient and an electrical potential gradient, and are thus exploited for applications such as waste heat recovery. LÄS MER
