Tags: thermoelectricity/thermoelectrics

Description

Thermoelectricity/thermoelectrics is the direct conversion of temperature differences to electric voltage and vice versa. This energy converstion is the results of the Seebeck effect (for heat to electricity) and the Peltier effect (for voltage difference to cooling).

  1. Developing a machine learning tool to optimize thermal transport

    Presentation Materials | 14 Aug 2018 | Contributor(s):: Adam Sandor Garrett, proycho, Xiulin Ruan, creynolds

    The purpose of this tool is to optimize SiGe super-lattices to have the lowest possible thermal conductivity. This poster describes the processes used in the tool and how it impacts thermoelectrics.

  2. Thermoelectric effects in semiconductor nanostructures: Role of electron and lattice properties

    Presentation Materials | 06 Oct 2010 | Contributor(s):: Abhijeet Paul, Gerhard Klimeck

    This presentation covers some aspects of present development in the field of thermoelectricity and focuses particularly on the silicon nanowires as potential thermoelectric materials. The electronic and phonon dispersions are calculated and used for the calculation of thermoelectric properties in...
