    Abstract : 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). READ MORE

  6. 19. Theoretical and Experimental Studies on Early Transition Metal Nitrides for Thermoelectrics

    Author : Mohammad Amin Gharavi; Per Eklund; Björn Alling; Rickard Armiento; Paolo Mele Shibaura; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Thermoelectricity transforms temperature gradients across thermoelectric material into an external voltage through a phenomenon known as the Seebeck effect. This property has resulted in niche applications such as solid-state cooling for electronic and optoelectronic devices which exclude the need for a coolant or any moving parts and long-lasting, maintenance-free radioisotope thermoelectric generators used for deep-space exploration.
