Investigation of Thermoelectric materials properties

u3512353 - Posted on 01 July 2016

Project Description: 

The interest of this study is to enhance the value of S. By examining the effective mass of density of states(DOS), which is an influential factor in controlling Seebeck coefficient, we will be able to draw conclusion upon the performance of the material.

Research Project Details
Project Duration: 
04/2016 to 04/2017
Project Significance: 
By optimizing the performance of the thermoelectric materials, the way of generating electricity can be revolutionized if the mechanism can be applied in to real-life practices.
Remarks: 
With the aid of HPC, The operation of a simulation software, Akai KKR, can be facilitated for the density of states calculation and also other investigations on the material properties.
