5. 4. Thermoelectric properties of conducting polymers

   Författare :Olga Bubnova; Xavier Crispin; Magnus Berggren; Alan Kaiser; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Thermoelectric generation; Seebeck coefficient; conducting polymers; thermoelectric efficiency.;

   Sammanfattning : According to different sources, from forty to sixty percent of the overall energy generated in the world today is squandered in waste heat. The existing energy conversion technologies are either close to their efficiency limits or too costly to justify their implementation. LÄS MER

   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; efficiency; deposition mechanism; thermoelectric properties; Thermoelectric; thin films; bismuth telluride and its derivatives; nano-engineering; electrochemical deposition;

   Sammanfattning : Thermoelectric materials have attracted enormous academic and industrial interest recently due to the fact that they can be used in solid state devices for power generation and cooling applications. It is expected that such thermoelectric applications will eventually contribute to meet the energy challenge in the future if the performance of the current devices can be further promoted through an increase in thermoelectric efficiency of the materials.
