Funded Activity Summary

Developing high-performance GeTe-based thermoelectric materials. This project aims to develop high-performance germanium telluride-based thermoelectric materials by microstructure engineering and band engineering, which will accelerate the drive for eco-friendly energy technology. The outcomes can result in innovative strategies for maximising thermoelectric performance in broader materials and lead to significant progress in knowledge of materials science, solid-state physics, and chemical science. Thermoelectric devices assembled from as-obtained high-efficiency materials can be used for recovering waste-heat in mining industries and harvesting the waste-heat from engines to improve fuel consumption efficiency, which will strategically boost Australia's energy industry, environment, and economy.
