Low-Dimensional Thermoelectricity
Thermoelectric materials are used as solid-state heat pumps and as power generators. The low efficiency of devices based on conventional bulk thermoelectric materials confines their applications to niches in which their advantages in compactness and controllability outweigh that drawback. Recent developments in nanotechnologies have led to the development of thermoelectric nano-materials with d...
متن کاملThermoelectricity in Cnfined Liquid Electrolytes
The electric field in an extended phase of a liquid electrolyte exposed to a temperature gradient is attributed to different thermophoretic mobilities of the ion species. As shown herein, such Soret-type ion thermodiffusion is not required to induce thermoelectricity even in the simplest electrolyte if it is confined between charged walls. The space charge of the electric double layer leads to ...
متن کاملRevisiting some chalcogenides for thermoelectricity.
Thermoelectric materials that are efficient well above ambient temperature are needed to convert waste-heat into electricity. Many thermoelectric oxides were investigated for this purpose, but their power factor (PF) values were too small (∼10-4 W m-1 K-2) to yield a satisfactory figure of merit zT. Changing the anions from O2- to S2- and then to Se2- is a way to increase the covalency. In this...
متن کاملNote on Normal Numbers Arthur H. Copeland and Paul Erdös
was normal (in the sense of Borel) with respect to the base 10, a normal number being one whose digits exhibit a complete randomness. More precisely a number is normal provided each of the digits 0, 1, 2, • • • , 9 occurs with a limiting relative frequency of 1/10 and each of the 10k sequences of k digits occurs with the frequency 10_k . Champernowne conjectured that if the sequence of all inte...
متن کاملPaul F. Cranefield Award to Daniel H. Cox
The late Paul F. Cranefield, M.D., Ph.D. was the Editor of the Journal of General Physiology for 30 yr, from 1966 to 1995. During this time he worked incessantly to further the mission of the Journal : to promote and publish studies at the interface between biology, chemistry, and physics in order to obtain insights into fundamental mechanisms that underlie biological function at all levels. Wh...
