  4. 3. Design of Transition-Metal Nitride Thin Films for Thermoelectrics

    Författare :Sit Kerdsongpanya; Per Eklund; Björn Alling; Gunilla Wingqvist; Lars Hultman; Daniel Gall; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    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
