Seoul National University College of Engineering has announced that a research team led by Prof. Jeonghun Kwak of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, with co-first authors Dr.

ADELPHI, Md. (Oct. 17, 2012) -- In one of its latest research projects, the U.S. Army Research Laboratory is investigating thermoelectric properties of materials on the Shadow Tactical Unmanned Aerial ...

A thin wearable sits flat on the skin and quietly turns body heat into power. Can this approach help us run devices without batteries?

A flat, flexible wearable thermoelectric generator converts body heat into electricity by redirecting thermal flow through a dual conductivity substrate.

Thermoelectric generator harvests renewable energy from the cold of space As effective as solar panels are, one of their major downsides is that they only produce power during the day, so excess ...

Engineers at Northwestern University have developed a new thermoelectric material that may be the most efficient one yet. The new and improved polycrystalline form of purified tin selenide has all the ...

Electrochemical MEMS allows the incorporation of a greater variety of materials, particularly metals and semiconductors, into devices. Most MEMS devices are made only from materials compatible with ...

A team of Korean researchers developed a thermoelectric material that can be used in wearable devices, such as smart clothing, and while maintaining stable thermal energy performance even in extreme ...

Offering an alternative to conventional fan trays and compressor-based cooling systems, thermoelectric cooler assemblies are compact units that deliver precise temperature control. These cooling ...

Cooler Master’s new hybrid closed-loop coolers aims to fix the one weakness of CLCs—they can never drop below the ambient room temperature. That’s because closed-loop coolers rely on a series of pumps ...

Just as a voltage difference can generate electric current, a temperature difference can generate a current flow in thermoelectric materials governed by its "Peltier conductivity" (P). Now, ...
