Enhanced Thermoelectric Properties of W- and Fe-Substituted MnSiγ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We have investigated the effect of heavy-element (W) substitution on the thermoelectric properties of higher manganese silicide (HMS). Samples were prepared by arc melting followed by liquid quenching, where the latter assisted in achieving higher ...

Thermoelectric effects in superconductors

open access: yes, 2004
It is widely believed that temperature gradient does not induce electric field in the superconductor and consequently that thermoelectric effects do not exist, or are negligible in these materials. This statement is correct only as far as effective electric field or gradient of the electrochemical potential is concerned.

High thermoelectric performance of graphite nanofibers

open access: yes, 2018
International audienceGraphite nanofibers (GNFs) have been demonstrated to be a promising material for hydrogen storage and heat management in electronic devices. Here, by means of first-principles and transport simulations, we show that GNFs can also be

Degradation of Methylene Blue by Hot Electrons Transfer in SnSe

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, 2023
The thermoelectric effect allows for the direct generation of potential gradients from the temperature gradient of the material, and this spontaneous formation of cathodes and anodes can greatly facilitate chemical reactions.

Development of high-performance multidimensional bismuth telluride-based thermoelectric materials

open access: yes, 2020
Thermoelectric materials enable the direct conversion between heat and electricity through the Seebeck effect. The efficiency of energy conversion is governed by a dimensionless figure of merit (zT) as: zT = S2σT/κ, where S, σ, κ, and T is the Seebeck ...

Phonon-drag effects on thermoelectric power [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review B, 1996
We carry out a calculation of the phonon-drag contribution $S_g$ to the thermoelectric power of bulk semiconductors and quantum well structures for the first time using the balance equation transport theory extended to the weakly nonuniform systems. Introducing wavevector and phonon-mode dependent relaxation times due to phonon-phonon interactions, the
