| Large thermoelectric power from a combination of magnets and superconductors Posted: 07 Feb 2014 05:37 AM PST Thermoelectric devices can cool materials by passing currents, or convert temperature differences into electric power. However, especially metallic structures have a very poor thermoelectric performance, and therefore most thermoelectrics are made of semiconductors. Now researchers have shown how a proper combination of magnetic metals and superconductors could allow reaching very strong thermoelectric conversion efficiency. |
