Thermoelectrics Get Big Boost From Nanoscale Pillars — Creating Electricty From Heat

(Before It's News)

Thermoelectric materials can see their performance radically improved via the utilization of an array of ‘nanoscale pillars’, according to new research from the University of Colorado Boulder. These tiny pillars, built directly onto the thermoelectric material, represent an entirely new approach to a problem that’s limited thermoelectrics since the birth of the field. The researchers
