    Sammanfattning : Energy harvesting is identified as an alternative solution for powering implantable biosensors. It can potentially enable the development of self-powered implants if the harvested energy is properly handled. This development implies that batteries, which impose many limitations, are replaced by miniature harvesting devices. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Thermoelectric Phenomena in Quantum Dots

    Författare :Sofia Fahlvik Svensson; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fysicumarkivet A:2014:Fahlvik Svensson; Coulomb blockade; nanowire; thermoelectricity; quantum dot;

    Sammanfattning : Thermoelectricity is being intensively researched as it is believed to hold great promise for applications in power generation and cooling. One way to quantify the electrical power output of a thermoelectric material is the power factor, a function of electrical conductivity and thermopower. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Synthesis of nanoporous Ca3Co4O9 thin films for flexible thermoelectrics

    Författare :Binbin Xin; Per Eklund; Biplab Paul; Niclas Solin; Tomas Nyberg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    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

  5. 5. Nanostructured Bulk Thermoelectrics : Scalable Fabrication Routes, Processing and Evaluation

    Författare :Mohsen Yakhshi Tafti; Muhammet S. Toprak; Gao Min; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Thermoelectric; Iron antimonide FeSb2 Skutterudite; Copper Selenide Cu2Se ; Spark Plasma Sintering SPS ; nanomaterial; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering; Energy Technology; Energiteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Current fossil fuel based energy sources have a huge shortcoming when one discusses their efficiency. The conversion efficiency of fossil fuel-based technologies is less than 40% in best cases. LÄS MER
