Potential of Recycled Silicon and Silicon-Based Thermoelectrics for Power Generation

Potential of Recycled Silicon and Silicon-Based Thermoelectrics for Power Generation

Thermoelectrics can convert waste heat to electricity and vice versa. The energy conversion efficiency depends on materials figure of merit, <i>zT</i>, and Carnot efficiency. Due to the higher Carnot efficiency at a higher temperature gradient, high-temperature thermoelectrics are attrac...
