Outline

This research aims to develop high efficiency thermoelectric materials by utilizing novel magnetic semiconductors and open up a route to convert minute thermal energy to electricity to power nano-semiconductor elements. As a scientific principle we will elucidate the enhancement of thermoelectrics by magnetism, and utilize a combination of nanostructuring, theoretical analysis on the nanoscale, TEM nanomeasurements of heat and electricity in order to achieve high thermoelectric performance, and develop magnetic semiconductor thermoelectric materials and devices for mW power generation.
