Abstract
p- and n-type Ag₂Te nanocrystals are coated separately onto nylon fibres to create flexible composites. A prototype thermoelectric device made using such fibres produces ∼0.8 nW in a 20 K temperature difference. This is improved to over 5 nW by using a conducting polymer as the p-type material.Entities:
