Nanostructured Interfaces for Thermoelectrics
Temperature drops at the interfaces between thermoelectric materials and the heat source and sink reduce the overall efficiency of thermoelectric systems. Nanostructured interfaces based on vertically aligned carbon nanotubes (CNTs) promise the combination of mechanical compliance and high thermal conductance required for thermoelectric modules, which are subjected to severe thermomechanical st...
متن کاملThermoelectrics for Cooling Power Electronics
To increase the efficiency and reduce emissions, the hybrid electric vehicle (HEV), fuel cell vehicle (FCV), and electric vehicle (EV) types were developed. All these vehicle types rely on power electronics (PEs) to function. Yet, the reliability and performance of PEs are directly related to the operating temperature. Therefore, cooling is considered an option to reduce the operating temperatu...
متن کاملPersonalized Image-based User Authentication using Wearable Cameras
Personal devices (e.g. laptops, tablets, and mobile phones) are conventional in daily life and have the ability to store users’ private data. The security problems related to these appliances have become a primary concern for both users and researchers. In this paper, we analyse first-person-view videos to develop a personalized user authentication mechanism. Our proposed algorithm generates pr...
متن کاملCorrelated thermoelectrics
In the first part of these lecture notes we introduce the phenomenological equations for describing the heat and charge transport in thermoelectric samples. We discuss the solution obtained for various boundary conditions that are appropriate for the homogeneous and inhomogeneous thermoelectrics. In the second part we develop the formalism for a linear-response many-body description of the tran...
متن کاملOptimal bandwidth for high efficiency thermoelectrics.
The thermoelectric figure of merit (ZT) in narrow conduction bands of different material dimensionalities is investigated for different carrier scattering models. When the bandwidth is zero, the transport distribution function (TDF) is finite, not infinite as previously speculated by Mahan and Sofo [Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 93, 7436 (1996)], even though the carrier density of states goes t...
