Next Generation Nano-engineered Thermoelectric Converters

ABSTRACT

The objective is to use nanotechnology to improve the component materials of TE devices (thermoelectric device) in order to make cost-effective mass production of these devices. Therefore, this project will allow new processing steps in the module /device materials that could be verified at the industry. Based on the identified applications and materials, the current module/device technology will also be developed during the project. As a result, the novelty exists in the whole concept of materials, module/device concept, and the application concept, making this project a comprehensive effort in the field of ET.  The project concerns the application of modern principle of nanotechnology for the design and creation of new materials with improved properties TE architectures.
