Multi-terminal Thermoelectric Transport in a Magnetic Field: Bounds on Onsager Coefficients and Efficiency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Thermoelectric transport involving an arbitrary number of terminals is discussed in the presence of a magnetic field breaking time-reversal symmetry within the linear response regime using the Landauer-B\"uttiker formalism. We derive a universal bound on

Opto-thermoelectric microswimmers [PDF]

open access: yesLight: Science & Applications, 2020
AbstractInspired by the “run-and-tumble” behaviours of Escherichia coli (E. coli) cells, we develop opto-thermoelectric microswimmers. The microswimmers are based on dielectric-Au Janus particles driven by a self-sustained electrical field that arises from the asymmetric optothermal response of the particles. Upon illumination by a defocused laser beam,

A numerical study on the design trade-offs of a thin-film thermoelectric generator for large-area applications

open access: yes, 2018
Thin-film thermoelectric generators with a novel folding scheme are proposed for large-area, low energy-density applications. Both the electrical current and heat transfer are in the plane of the thermoelectric thin-film, yet the heat transfer is across ...

Thermoelectric cooling materials [PDF]

open access: yesNature Materials, 2020
Solid-state thermoelectric devices can directly convert electricity into cooling or enable heat pumping through the Peltier effect. The commercialization of thermoelectric cooling technology has been built on the Bi2Te3 alloys, which have had no rival for the past six decades around room temperature. With the discovery and development of more promising

Enhanced Oxidation and Thermal Shock Resistance of N‐type Mg2Si0.89(Sn0.1,Sb0.01) Thermoelectric Material via Cr0.9Si0.1 Coating

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Cr0.9Si0.1 protective coatings are developed to enhance the thermal‐shock and oxidation resistance of Mg2Si0.89(Sn0.1,Sb0.01) thermoelectric (TE) materials. The coating forms a dense and adherent barrier that suppresses oxygen diffusion and mitigates mechanical degradation during cyclic oxidation, demonstrating its potential to improve the long‐term ...
