Development of thermoelectric materials based on Fe2VAl Heusler compound for energy harvesting applications
The Heusler-type Fe2VAl compound is a nonmagnetic semimetal with a sharp pseudogap at the Fermi level. Doping of quaternary elements causes a large enhancement in the Seebeck coefficient, in parallel with a significant decrease in the electrical resistivity. Since the Seebeck coefficient varies systematically with the valence electron concentration (VEC), irrespective of doping elements, the ne...
متن کاملRecent Progress on PEDOT-Based Thermoelectric Materials
The thermoelectric properties of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT)-based materials have attracted attention recently because of their remarkable electrical conductivity, power factor, and figure of merit. In this review, we summarize recent efforts toward improving the thermoelectric properties of PEDOT-based materials. We also discuss thermoelectric measurement techniques and several un...

By converting waste heat into electricity through the thermoelectric power of solids without producing greenhouse gas emissions, thermoelectric generators could be an important part of the solution to today’s energy challenge. There has been a resurgence in the search for new materials for advanced thermoelectric energy conversion applications. In this paper, we will review recent efforts on im...
متن کاملModeling the Thermoelectric Properties of Bulk and Nanocomposite Thermoelectric Materials
Thermoelectric materials are materials which are capable of converting heat directly into electricity. They have long been used in specialized fields where high reliability is needed, such as space power generation. Recently, certain nanostructured materials have been fabricated with high thermoelectric properties than those of commercial bulk materials, leading to a renewed interest in thermoe...
متن کاملPorous Thermoelectric Materials
Thermoelectric materials are sometimes prepared using a sintering process in which the achievement of a high density is often one of the objectives. However, it has recently been shown that the introduction of a highly porous material is desirable in synthetic transverse thermoelements. Porosity may also be an advantage in conventional longitudinal thermoelectric modules in which a high thermal...
