Crystal Growth of Thermoelectric Material
A Rapid Method of Crystal Growth and Evaluation of Thermoelectric Compound Semiconductors
Author: V. J. King
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Electronics
Languages : en
Pages : 1
Book Description
Concurrent to providing material to the research and device groups of the Solid State organization during the past two years, a facility was developed which has the ability to produce, process, and evaluate compound semiconductor materials with a minimum expenditure of effort. The maximum value of this facility will probably be realized by intensified application to material problems, which require evaluation of large numbers of materials of diversified and unknown behavior. Future work in the crystal laboratory is to be directed to the preparation and study of semiconductors of the multielement compound and solid solution type, particularly for the purpose of locating more efficient thermoelectric materials. Specifically, the intentions are to extend the hand flame and associated techniques and the special thermal analysis method to establish the stoichiometry and behavior of the ternary compounds.

CRC Handbook of Thermoelectrics
Author: D.M. Rowe
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 0429956673
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 720
Book Description
Thermoelectrics is the science and technology associated with thermoelectric converters, that is, the generation of electrical power by the Seebeck effect and refrigeration by the Peltier effect. Thermoelectric generators are being used in increasing numbers to provide electrical power in medical, military, and deep space applications where combinations of their desirable properties outweigh their relatively high cost and low generating efficiency. In recent years there also has been an increase in the requirement for thermoelectric coolers (Peltier devices) for use in infrared detectors and in optical communications. Information on thermoelectrics is not readily available as it is widely scattered throughout the literature. The Handbook centralizes this information in a convenient format under a single cover. Sixty of the world's foremost authorities on thermoelectrics have contributed to this Handbook. It is comprised of fifty-five chapters, a number of which contain previously unpublished material. The contents are arranged in eight sections: general principles and theoretical considerations, material preparation, measurement of thermoelectric properties, thermoelectric materials, thermoelectric generation, generator applications, thermoelectric refrigeration, and applications of thermoelectric cooling. The CRC Handbook of Thermoelectrics has a broad-based scope. It will interest researchers, technologists, and manufacturers, as well as students and the well-informed, non-specialist reader.

Multicomponent Silicides for Thermoelectric Materials
Author: Jean-Claude Tedenac
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319582682
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 50
Book Description
This book provides a comprehensive review of the current state of the art in silicon compounds for thermoelectric applications. Silicides are materials with good initial thermoelectric properties, which can be enhanced through tuning of their micro- and macrostructure. These compounds present various conduction mechanisms and complex band structures. Moreover, some are isotropic, and others anisotropic, which is highly beneficial for device tailoring. Silicides are a particularly attractive material for sensors, thermoelectric generators, and other applications because they are environmentally friendly, abundant, and low cost. This concise volume covers fundamentals and applications for an audience of materials scientists, chemists, solid-state physicists, and engineers.
