Thermoelectric degrees of freedom determining thermoelectric efficiency [PDF]

open access: yesiScience 24, 102934 (2021), 2018
Thermal energy can be directly converted to electrical energy as a result of thermoelectric effects. Because this conversion realises clean energy technology, such as waste heat recovery and energy harvesting, substantial efforts have been made to search for thermoelectric materials.

Geometrically Enhanced Thermoelectric Effects in Graphene Nanoconstrictions [PDF]

open access: yesNano Letters, 2018
The influence of nanostructuring and quantum confinement on the thermoelectric properties of materials has been extensively studied. While this has made possible multiple breakthroughs in the achievable figure of merit, classical confinement, and its effect on the local Seebeck coefficient has mostly been neglected, as has the Peltier effect in general

Geometric optimization of thermoelectric generator using genetic algorithm considering contact resistance and Thomson effect

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Research, 2021
Contact resistance and Thomson heat are the two major factors in the analysis of thermoelectric modules that are often being ignored. Each of these factors has an adverse effect on the output performance of a thermoelectric module.

A conductive line inclusion in thermoelectric materials: the thermoelectric fields and the effective thermoelectric properties

open access: yesPhilosophical Magazine, 2022
This paper studies a finite thermoelectric (TE) medium with an internal line inclusion which is electrically and thermal conductive. Exact solutions are obtained for the coupling and nonlinear thermoelectric fields. Based on the derived thermal and electrical fields, the effective thermoelectric properties (including thermal conductivity, electrical ...

A topological transition-induced giant transverse thermoelectric effect in polycrystalline Dirac semimetal Mg3Bi2 [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
To achieve thermoelectric energy conversion, a large transverse thermoelectric effect in topological materials is crucial. However, the general relationship between topological electronic structures and transverse thermoelectric effect remains unclear, restricting the rational design of novel transverse thermoelectric materials.
