11. Scandium Nitride Thin Films for Thermoelectrics
Sammanfattning : Thermoelectric devices are one of the promising energy harvesting technologies, since they can convert heat (i.e. a temperature gradient) to electricity. This result leads us to use them to harvest waste heat from heat engines or in power plants to generate usable electricity. LÄS MER
12. Doping and Density of States Engineering for Organic Thermoelectrics
Sammanfattning : Thermoelectric materials can turn temperature differences directly into electricity. To use this to harvest e.g. waste heat with an efficiency that approaches the Carnot efficiency requires a figure of merit ZT larger than 1. LÄS MER
13. Synthesis of nanoporous Ca3Co4O9 thin films for flexible thermoelectrics
Sammanfattning : During energy generation, transportation and usage, large amounts of energy are lost as waste heat. With increasing energy consumption and environmental issues, exploiting this waste heat has drawn extensive attention. LÄS MER
14. Design of Transition-Metal Nitride Thin Films for Thermoelectrics
Sammanfattning : Thermoelectric devices are one of the promising energy harvesting technologies, because of their ability to convert heat (temperature gradient) to electricity by the Seebeck effect. Furthermore, thermoelectric devices can be used for cooling or heating by the inverse effect (Peltier effect). LÄS MER
15. Chemical Doping of Conjugated Polymers for Thermoelectric Applications
Sammanfattning : The ongoing development of interconnected and wearable small devices, which together make up the so-called Internet of Things, is driving a rising need for autonomous and on-site energy supplies. Heat, an abundant and often wasted energy source, can be harnessed through thermoelectric generators that can directly convert heat into electricity. LÄS MER
