Descripción
Sumario:Annotation -- Edited by the initiators of a priority research program funded by the German Science Foundation and written by an international teamof key players, this is the first book to provide an overview of nanostructured thermoelectric materials putting the newdevelopments into perspective alongside conventional thermoelectrics. As such, it reviews the current state of research on thermoelectric Bi2Te3 nanomaterials, covering advanced methods of materialssynthesis, characterization of materials structures andthermoelectric properties, as well as advances in the theory andmodeling of transport properties. Nanomaterials basedthermoelectric devices are also discussed with respect to their properties, their suitability for different energy generation applications, and in light of their commercialization potential. An outlook on the chances, challenges and future directions of research rounds off the book, giving a straightforward account ofthe fundamental and technical problems plus ways to overcome them.
