The property of a junction of dissimilar conductors to either generate electricity from a difference in temperature (the Seebeck effect), or heating or cooling the junction (the Peltier effect).

This is his Energy Harvesting Peltier Ring. The effect he is harnessing is called the SeeBeck Effect — the process of generating electricity through temperature differentials. He has shown how ...

“Thermoelectric devices are solid-state devices that operate on the principle of the Seebeck effect for power generation and on the Peltier effect for cooling operation,” explained the ...
