Thermoelectric material attracts attention as efficient use of exhaust heat. Thermoelectric materials are classified by temperature such as low temperature, room temperature, middle temperature, and high temperature.
Companies and universities develop them in order to achieve over performance index ZT=1.
Thermoelectric material integrated into electric-generating modules and peltier devices is expected to generate clean energy and to save energy.
We have developed thermoelectric material for over 10 years so that we achieve superior performance for joint researches such as AIST.
