The thermoelectric working fluid: thermodynamics and transport [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Thermoelectric devices are heat engines, which operate as generators or refrigerators using the conduction electrons as a working fluid. The thermoelectric heat-to-work conversion efficiency has always been typically quite low, but much effort continues ...
