ResearchThermoelectricity at nanocontacts
Thermoelectricity is a physical phenomenon that describes how temperature differences within a solid produce electrical voltages. An illustrative application of this would be, for example, charging a wristwatch by exploiting the temperature difference between wrist and environment. Matthias Popp and Prof. Heiko Weber from the Chair of Applied Physics have now developed an experimental setup […]Thermoelectricity is a physical phenomenon that describes how temperature differences within a solid produce electrical voltages.
