Description

Product Description Thermoelectricity and Advanced Thermoelectric Materials reviews emerging thermoelectric materials, including skutterudites, clathrates, and half-Heusler alloys. In addition, the book discusses a number of oxides and silicides that have promising thermoelectric properties. Because 2D materials with high figures of merit have emerged as promising candidates for thermoelectric applications, this book presents an updated introduction to the field of thermoelectric materials, including recent advances in materials synthesis, device modeling, and design. Finally, the book addresses the theoretical difficulties and methodologies of computing the thermoelectric properties of materials that can be used to understand and predict highly efficient thermoelectric materials. This book is a key reference for materials scientists, physicists, and engineers in energy. Review Key reference on the basic principles of thermoelectricity, recent advances in thermoelectric materials, and their applications From the Back Cover The quest for the high-performance thermoelectric materials for heat conversion into electrical energy have led to the synthesis of new thermoelectric materials. Efficient thermoelectric materials must have low thermal conductivity, high electrical conductivity and high Seebeck coefficient. Over the last couple of decades, significant progress has been made in the development of new highly efficient thermoelectric materials. Thermoelectricity and Advanced Thermoelectric Materials reviews these emerging materials including skutterudites, clathrates, and half-Heusler alloys. The book also discusses the number of oxides and silicides that have promising thermoelectric properties. Recently 2D materials with high figures of merit have emerged as promising candidates for thermoelectric applications so this is touched on in the book. Thermoelectricity and Advanced Thermoelectric Materials presents an updated introduction to the field of thermoelectric materials and discusses the recent advances in the materials synthesis, device modelling, and design. There is a substantial focus on the role of electronic structure in thermal and transport properties of materials, the strategies and methodologies for optimizing the thermoelectric performance of materials by electronic structure engineering, controlling electronic and thermal conductivities. The book also addresses the theoretical difficulties and methodologies of computing the thermoelectric properties of materials which can be used to understand and predict high efficient thermoelectric materials.
