A flexible electromagnetic wave-electricity harvester

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Materials that can harvest electromagnetic (EM) waves and harness the resulting energy would have many applications. Here, the authors present a hybrid composite that produces thermoelectricity from the heating in the EM absorption under microwave ...

Thermoelectric properties of Si-based thermoelectrics

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Science, 1999
The thermal conductivity κ and the electric properties of Si1-xGex (x≤0.03) samples doped with Group 3B and 5B elements which were prepared by arc melting were measured as functions of carrier (or dopant) concentration n and of temperature in the range from 298K to 1273K.

Cathodic Cage Plasma Deposition of Nanostructured Cu–Fe–Se Coatings on Poly(methyl Methacrylate)

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Nanostructured Cu–Fe–Se coatings are deposited on PMMA by a modified cathodic cage plasma process, enabling low‐temperature deposition on polymer substrates. A transition from discontinuous to compact morphology is observed with temperature, with optimal properties at 200°C, where improved CuFeSe2‐type bonding, lowest sheet resistance, and favorable ...

Bipolar Thermoelectricity in Bilayer-Graphene--Superconductor Tunnel Junctions

open access: yes, 2023
We investigate the thermoelectric properties of a hybrid nanodevice composed by a 2D carbon based material and a superconductor. This system presents nonlinear bipolar thermoelectricity as induced by the spontaneous breaking of the Particle-Hole (PH ...

Reversible Thermoelectric Nanomaterials

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2005
Irreversible effects in thermoelectric materials limit their efficiency and economy for applications in power generation and refrigeration. While electron transport is unavoidably irreversible in bulk materials, here we derive conditions under which reversible diffusive electron transport can be achieved in nanostructured thermoelectric materials via ...

Counterion Dependent Side‐Chain Relaxation Stiffens a Chemically Doped Thienothiophene Copolymer

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Oxidation of a thienothiophene copolymer, p(g3TT‐T2), via different doping strategies and dopant molecules resulted in materials with similar oxidation levels and a high electrical conductivity of ≈100 S cm−1. However, mechanical properties varied significantly, with sub‐glass transition temperatures and elastic moduli spanning from –44°C to –3°C and ...

Anomalous scaling law for thermoelectric transport of two-dimension-confined electrons in an organic molecular system

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2022
Confined electrons in low dimensions host desirable material functions for downscaled electronics as well as advanced energy technologies. Thermoelectricity is a most fascinating example since the dimensionality modifies the electron density of states ...

From Food to Power: Hydrogel Thermoelectrics for Ingestible Electronics

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We introduce a fully edible thermoelectric–electrochromic platform that harvests heat from food and converts it into a visible color change. N‐type and p‐type hydrogel thermoelectric generators connected in series power anthocyanin‐based electrochromic displays, demonstrating the feasibility of safe, biodegradable, ingestible systems for on‐food ...
