Solving a mystery of thermoelectrics
Boston MA (SPX) May 01, 2014 - Materials that can be used for thermoelectric devices - those that turn a temperature difference into an electric voltage - have been known for decades. But until now there has been no good explanation for why just a few materials work well for these applications, while most others do not. Now researchers at MIT and elsewhere say they have finally found a theoretical explanation for the differen ... more
