Journal ArticleDOI
Tailored semiconducting carbon nanotube networks with enhanced thermoelectric properties
A. D. Avery,Ben H. Zhou,Jounghee Lee,Eui Sup Lee,Elisa M. Miller,Rachelle Ihly,Devin Wesenberg,Kevin S. Mistry,Sarah Lucienne Guillot,Sarah Lucienne Guillot,Barry L. Zink,Yong-Hyun Kim,Jeffrey L. Blackburn,Andrew J. Ferguson +13 more
TL;DR: Agarwal et al. as mentioned in this paper report carbon nanotube-based materials with selected properties that exhibit enhanced thermoelectric performance, which are low-cost, versatile alternatives to more established inorganic ones.
Journal ArticleDOI
Observation of the planar Nernst effect in permalloy and nickel thin films with in-plane thermal gradients.
TL;DR: Experimental evidence of a transverse thermopower, or planar Nernst effect, in ferromagnetic metal thin films driven by thermal gradients applied in the plane of the films is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal conductivity of micromachined low-stress silicon-nitride beams from 77 to 325 K
TL;DR: In this article, thermal conductivity measurements of micromachined 500 nm thick silicon-nitride (Si-N) beams suspended between two Si-N islands, in the temperature range from 77 to 325 K, are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal and electrical conductivity of approximately 100-nm permalloy, Ni, Co, Al, and Cu films and examination of the Wiedemann-Franz Law
TL;DR: In this article, thermal and electrical conductivity of polycrystalline permalloy (Ni-Fe), aluminum, copper, cobalt, and nickel thin films with thickness $l200$ nm were measured using a micromachined silicon-nitride membrane thermal isolation platform.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polymer-free carbon nanotube thermoelectrics with improved charge carrier transport and power factor
Brenna Norton-Baker,Rachelle Ihly,Isaac E. Gould,A. D. Avery,Zbyslaw R. Owczarczyk,Andrew J. Ferguson,Jeffrey L. Blackburn +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate that removing the wrapping polymer from the highly enriched s-SWCNT network leads to substantial improvements in charge carrier transport and thermoelectric power factor.
