Thermoelectric Measurement Methods: From Transport Properties to Generator Characterization

Kurzfassung

This talk provides an overview of key thermoelectric measurement methods, from fundamental transport property evaluation to the characterization of complete thermoelectric generators (TEG’s). We will discuss experimental techniques, challenges in measurement accuracy, and their impact on material and device optimization. By combining different measurement methods at both the material and module levels, we gain deeper insights into performance-limiting factors and optimization strategies, ultimately supporting the development of more efficient TEG's.
