Mg2X (X = Si, Sn) thermoelectric materials are promising materials for converting solar-thermal energy to electricity. To investigate the effects of non-stoichiometric compositions and Ag-doping on the thermoelectric properties of Mg2Sn, Mg2Sn thermoelectric materials were synthesized via...

Studies related to porous burner for thermoelectric (TE) power generation have mainly focused toward achieving a specific range of power output for various applications. However, detailed analyses on the performance and emission aspects of the porous burner are lacking. In addition, physical...

Among various thermoelectric (TE) materials, iron disilicide (FeSi2) has relatively low cost and non-toxic characteristics which make it appropriate for large scale applications. To enhance the dimensionless figure of merit (ZT) of this material, a composite of FeSi2–Si0.8Ge0.2 with high...
