Micropower thermoelectric generator from thin Si membranes
We report the development of a Si-based micro thermogenerator build from silicon-oninsulator by using standard CMOS processing. Ultrathin layers of Si, 100 nm in thickness, with embedded n and p-type doped regions electrically connected in series and thermally in parallel, are the active elements of the thermoelectric device that generate the thermopower under various thermal gradients. This pr...

متن کاملThin Thermoelectric Generator System for Body Energy Harvesting
Wearable thermoelectric generators (TEGs) harvest thermal energy generated by the body to generate useful electricity. The performance of these systems is limited by (1) the small working temperature differential between the body and ambient, (2) the desire to use natural air convection cooling on the cold side of the generator, and (3) the requirement for thin, lightweight systems that are com...
متن کاملLarge coherence area thin-film photonic stop-band lasers.
We demonstrate that the shift of the stop-band position with increasing oblique angle in periodic structures results in a wide transverse exponential field distribution corresponding to strong angular confinement of the radiation. The beam expansion follows an effective diffusive equation depending only upon the spectral mode width. In the presence of gain, the beam cross section is limited onl...
