The maximum efficiency of a thermoelectric material for both power generation and cooling is determined by its figure of merit (zT): For the past 40 years, thermoelectric generators have reliably ...

“With our present work, we can 3D print exactly the needed shape of thermoelectric materials. In addition, the resulting devices exhibit a net cooling effect of 50 degrees in the air. This means ...

By driving a phase transition into the Yu-Shiba-Rusinov regime, they achieve a fivefold boost in thermoelectric power, enabling advances in cryogenic heat recovery and quantum cooling.

"With our present work, we can 3D print exactly the needed shape of thermoelectric materials. In addition, the resulting ...

For optimal use, thermoelectric (TE) materials and modules must be adapted to the requirements of the system where they are integrated. Depending on the temperature range of the application, a ...

A Chinese-Egyptian research group has investigated how rooftop PV may be coupled with thermoelectric coolers ... assessed the PV-fed current, the cooling power, the average air chamber temperature ...

“Such radiative cooling effect has received significant recent interest, focusing on achieving cooling in various materials and ... The solar cell is based on a thermoelectric generator (TEG ...
