492 results about "Thermoelectric materials" patented technology

Thermoelectric materials show the thermoelectric effect in a strong or convenient form. The thermoelectric effect refers to phenomena by which either a temperature difference creates an electric potential or an electric potential creates a temperature difference. These phenomena are known more specifically as the Seebeck effect (creating a voltage from temperature difference), Peltier effect (driving heat flow with an electric current), and Thomson effect (reversible heating or cooling within a conductor when there is both an electric current and a temperature gradient). While all materials have a nonzero thermoelectric effect, in most materials it is too small to be useful. However, low-cost materials that have a sufficiently strong thermoelectric effect (and other required properties) are also considered for applications including power generation and refrigeration. The most commonly used thermoelectric material is based on bismuth telluride (Bi₂Te₃).

Hybrid horizontal thermoelectric temperature modulation element and temperature modulation method using same

The present invention provides a horizontal thermoelectric conversion element having a thermoelectric temperature modulation performance that can be on par with that obtained through the conventional Peltier effect, in comparison. The present invention is provided with: a first electrode and a second electrode which are disposed so as to face each other; and a laminate which is held between the first and the second electrodes and which is electrically connected to both the first and second electrodes. The laminate has a structure in which layers of a first thermoelectric material and layers of a second thermoelectric material are alternately laminated, and the value of at least one of Peltier coefficient, electrical conductivity, or thermal conductivity is different between the first thermoelectric material and the second thermoelectric material. At least one of the first and second thermoelectric materials exhibits a vertical magnetic thermoelectric effect or a horizontal magnetic thermoelectric effect. The laminate surfaces of the first layers and the second layers are inclined with respect to the direction in which the first electrode and the second electrode face each other. By having a current supplied between the first and second electrodes and having a magnetic field applied in a direction in which the magnetic thermoelectric effect is to be generated, a temperature difference is generated in a direction perpendicular to the current.
