Realizing Excellent n‐ and p‐Type Niobium‐Based Half‐Heusler Compounds Based on Thermoelectric Properties and High‐Temperature Stability

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, 2020
Half‐Heusler (HH) compounds are currently promising thermoelectric (TE) materials due to their outstanding performance. For reliable n‐ and p‐type HH compounds, the dimensionless figure of merit zT is reported as greater than unity. However, to develop a

A new comparison between solid-state thermionics and thermoelectrics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
It is shown that equations for electrical current in solid-state thermionic and thermoelectric devices converge for devices with a width equal to the mean free path of electrons, yielding a common expression for intensive electronic efficiency in the two

Complex thermoelectric materials [PDF]

open access: yesNature Materials, 2008
Thermoelectric materials, which can generate electricity from waste heat or be used as solid-state Peltier coolers, could play an important role in a global sustainable energy solution. Such a development is contingent on identifying materials with higher thermoelectric efficiency than available at present, which is a challenge owing to the conflicting

Domain Wall Rebounds Driven by Competing Entropic and Spin‐Transfer Torques in Cylindrical Nanowires

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Domain‐wall motion in cylindrical magnetic nanowires driven by nanosecond current pulses. Low current densities efficiently displace domain walls, whereas higher currents cause rebound at the wire ends. The effect results from the interplay between spin‐transfer torque and thermally induced processes, highlighting the role of thermal gradients in ...

Diffusion and Transport Coefficients in Synthetic Opals

open access: yes, 1999
Opals are structures composed of the closed packing of spheres in the size range of nano-to-micro meter. They are sintered to create small necks at the points of contact. We have solved the diffusion problem in such structures.

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 ...

Size Effect on the Thermal Conductivity of a Type-I Clathrate

open access: yesCrystals, 2023
Clathrates are a materials class with an extremely low phonon thermal conductivity, which is a key ingredient for a high thermoelectric conversion efficiency. Here, we present a study on the type-I clathrate La1.2Ba6.8Au5.8Si38.8□1.4 directed at lowering
