Thermoelectric properties of the degenerate Hubbard model

open access: yes, 2001
We investigate the thermoelectric properties of a system near a pressure driven Mott-Hubbard transition. The dependence of the thermopower and the figure of merit on pressure and temperature within a degenerate Hubbard model for integer filling n=1 is ...

Transducers Across Scales and Frequencies: A System‐Level Framework for Multiphysics Integration and Co‐Design

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Transducers convert physical signals into electrical and optical representations, yet each mechanism is bounded by intrinsic trade‐offs across bandwidth, sensitivity, speed, and energy. This review maps transduction mechanisms across physical scale and frequency, showing how heterogeneous integration and multiphysics co‐design transform isolated ...

N-type organic thermoelectrics: demonstration of ZT > 0.3

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Achieved high thermoelectric figure of merit (ZT) in organic thermoelectric materials remains a challenge due to their low packing order and poor host/dopant miscibility.

Tellurium as a high-performance elemental thermoelectric

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Good thermoelectric materials are often complex compounds. Here, the authors reveal that elemental tellurium has a high thermoelectric figure of merit between 300 and 700 K when doped with As, with the potential advantages of easy preparation and ...

Additive Manufacturing of Ni‐Based Thermoelectric Materials for Waste Heat Recovery

open access: yesAdvanced 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 ...

Stress‐Normalized Sensitivity as a Comparative Benchmark for Intrinsically Piezoresistive Nanocomposite Materials in Wearable Electronics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A stress‐normalised sensitivity metric (S = G/Y) is introduced as a materials‐level benchmark for intrinsically piezoresistive nanocomposites. By decoupling electromechanical response (G) from stiffness (Y), the framework enables direct comparison across diverse systems and clarifies design trade‐offs for wearable sensors.
