Characterization of Polycrystalline Thermoelectric Oxide Materials Prepared by Hyper-structural Control Processing

Abstract

For the purpose of thermoelectric generator using waste heat energy from car exhaust gas, thermoelectric oxide ceramics have been developing structural control in the wide range vision (panoscopic scale) from crystal structure to grain ordering in ceramics as synergistic materials. The results of structural design on the thermoelectric properties of ceramics are shown.
