Thermoelectrics: A Nanostructuring Method to Decouple Electrical and Thermal Transport through the Formation of Electrically Triggered Conductive Nanofilaments (Adv. Mater. 28/2018)
Year: 2018
Type: article
Abstract: In article number 1705385, Jr-Hau He and co-workers propose an innovative strategy to switch thermoelectric properties between two states without further material modification and manufacturing process by forming/disrupting electrically triggered conductive nanofilaments within semiconducting thin films. This process can controllably adjust the degree of decoupling, providing a potential resolution and performance adjustability for heat/coldness control or reduction of power consumption on demand.
