Thermoelectric Energy Generator with a Four-Fold Increase in 𝒛𝑻 (2022-113)
Solid state thermal-to-electrical energy converters are energy harvesters capable of transforming heat directly into electricity. These thermoelectric (TE) energy generators use the Seebeck effect to generate energy using temperature differences. They contain no moving parts and are therefore inherently robust and reliable. Due to their minimal mechanical...

Energy Efficient Thermoelectric Air Conditioning System (2021-058)
Most buildings still use traditional vapor compression-based air conditioning systems. Although widely used and generally effective, these systems have room for improvement in terms of energy efficiency. This is because of the excess cooling and reheating required to achieve both sensible cooling and latent cooling in a single evaporator. To solve...
