ZT > 0.1 Electron‐Carrying Polymer Thermoelectric Composites with In Situ SnCl2 Microstructure Growth

Year: 2015

Type: article

Abstract: An n-type pyromellitic diimide polymer composite with in situ microstructure growth of the common element compound SnCl2 reaches power factor of 50–100 μW m−1 K−2, the highest purely n-type polymer composite power factor yet reported. The composite has a gigantic Seebeck coefficient between −4000 and −5000 μV K−1, many times higher than other polymer composites.
