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 ...

Plastic/Ductile Bulk 2D van der Waals Single‐Crystalline SnSe2 for Flexible Thermoelectrics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2022
The recently discovered ductile/plastic inorganic semiconductors pave a new avenue toward flexible thermoelectrics. However, the power factors of current ductile/plastic inorganic semiconductors are usually low (below 5 µW cm−1 K−2) as compared with ...

Promising thermoelectric performance in van der Waals layered SnSe2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
SnSe as a lead-free IV–VI semiconductor, has attracted intensive attention for its potential thermoelectric applications, since it is less toxic and much cheaper than conventional PbTe and PbSe thermoelectrics.

Adiabatic response and quantum thermoelectrics for ac driven quantum systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We generalize the theory of thermoelectrics to include coherent electron systems under adiabatic ac driving, accounting for quantum pumping of charge and heat as well as the associated work exchange between electron system and driving potentials.
