Additive Manufacturing of Ni‐Based Thermoelectric Materials for Waste Heat Recovery
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Thermoelectric generators convert waste heat into electricity but are constrained by conventional fabrication. Here, laser powder bed fusion enables direct printing of customised n‐type Cu60Ni40 and p‐type Ni90Cr10 legs. The assembled module achieves 0.8% efficiency at ΔT = 419 K, demonstrating scalable additive manufacturing of eco‐friendly, design ...

Flexoelectricity driven elastic contact–separation model for triboelectrification
FrictionTriboelectrification is the transfer of electrical charge between surfaces during contact. When the contact is purely normal (i.e., no sliding), the term contact electrification is often used.
