Advances and Outlooks for Carbon Nanotube‐Based Thermoelectric Materials and Devices
Queensland University of Technology · Nanjing Tech University
Abstract
The unique structure of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) endows them with exceptional electrical and mechanical properties, along with a high surface area, making them highly beneficial for use as flexible, high-performing thermoelectric materials. As a result, the application of CNTs in the thermoelectric field has become increasingly widespread. Considering the rapid advancements in this field, this review offers a timely overview of the most recent progress on CNT-based thermoelectric materials and devices over the past five years. This review begins by introducing the fundamental concepts and thermoelectric mechanisms of CNT-based thermoelectric materials. Then new strategies are explored to enhance their…
