Polymer Nanocomposite Foams with Enhanced Thermoelectric Efficiencies
… such as light weight, low cost, flexibility, and simple synthesis. However, compared with their semiconducting counterparts, polymers have lower TE efficiencies, which have limited their applications. A fundamental challenge to improve the efficiency of polymeric TE materials is to simultaneously …
