Utilizing Phase Separation Reactions for Enhancement of the Thermoelectric Efficiency in IV-VI Alloys / Yaniv Gelbstein -- Nanostructured Materials: Enhancing the Thermoelectric Performance / Ngo Van Nong, Le Thanh Hung -- Organic Thermoelectric Materials / Simone Fabiano, Ioannis Petsagkourakis, Guillaume Fleury, Georges Hadziioannou, Xavier Crispin -- Silicon for Thermoelectric Energy Harvesting Applications / Dario Narducci, Luca Belsito, Alex Morata -- Techniques for Characterizing Thermoelectric Materials: Methods and the Challenge of Consistency / Hans-Fridtjof Pernau -- Preparation and Characterization of TE Interfaces/Junctions / Gao Min, Matthew Phillips -- Thermoelectric Modules: Power Output, Efficiency, and Characterization / Jorge García-Cañadas -- Integration of Heat Exchangers with Thermoelectric Modules / Alireza Rezania -- Power Electronic Converters and Their Control in Thermoelectric Applications / Erik Schaltz, Elena A Man -- Thermoelectric Energy Harvesting for Powering Wearable Electronics / Luca Francioso, Chiara De Pascali -- Thermoelectric Modules as Efficient Heat Flux Sensors / Gennadi Gromov -- Photovoltaic-Thermoelectric Hybrid Energy Conversion / Ning Wang.
Summary: The latest volume in the well-established AMN series, this ready reference provides an up-to-date, self-contained summary of recent developments in the technologies and systems for thermoelectricity. Following an initial chapter that introduces the fundamentals and principles of thermoelectricity, subsequent chapters discuss the synthesis and integration of various bulk thermoelectric as well as nanostructured materials. The book then goes on to discuss characterization techniques, including various light and mechanic microscopy techniques, while also summarizing applications for thermoelectric materials, such as micro- and nano-thermoelectric generators, wearable electronics and energy conversion devices. The result is a bridge between industry and scientific researchers seeking to develop thermoelectric generators.
