Synthesis and characterisation of a planar thermoelectric generator based on Ca3Co4O9 and SrTiO3 thin-films

Abstract

International audienceWe propose the fabrication of a planar thermoelectric generator based on the serial alignment of p-type Ca 3 Co 4 O 9 and n-type SrTiO 3 thin films. The physico-chemical characterization of each material, grown by pulsed-laser deposition, as well as the thermoelectric performances of the device, are presented and discussed
