Abstract: In article 1800877, Ling Xu, Bin Hu, and co-workers review the fundamental thermoelectric performance of organic heterojunctions from molecular to thin-film and hybrid designs. It is demonstrated that electrical and thermal conduction can be controlled not only by organic or other components but also by “artificial” interfaces. Specifically, organic heterojunctions offer opportunities to use length scale, polarization, and excited states as key parameters to enhance thermoelectric performance. The background shows the interdependent characteristics of organic heterojunctions (molecular, thin-film and hybrid designs) and the potential differences that arise when heat is applied to one side.
