| Abstract: | With the increaseing globaldemand for energy, we are facinga hugechallenge of energy sustainability. Renewable energy has attractedan immense amount ofinterestwith regard tosolving the sustainbility issue. Among the various renewable energy sources, solarheat and waste heat energy has significant advantages due to its availability. Thermoelectric nanomaterials play an indispensable role in heat-to-electricity energy conversion. A high energy conversion efficiency is critical for practical applications of thermoelectric energy conversion systems, and understanding the fundamentals of energy conversion mechanisms is essential. This book details thermoelectric energy conversion nanomaterials and the related manufacturing processes. It also introducesthe latest research progress in thermoelectric energy conversion nanomaterials. It is agreat reference for readers from both academia and industry. |
