Product Information

Outline

• Developping Flexible Thermoelectric Generator composed from organic materials.
• p-type semiconductor and the n-type semiconductor are arraied in the in-plane direction (parallel to the heat source contact surface).
• A suitable heat insulating material and a good heat conducting material (radiating material) are used to ensure a temperature difference.
• By arranging them, we made it possible to reduce the thickness of the thermoelectric conversion elements and create a flexible module.

Characteristic

• Unique structural design enables thin and flexibile modules.
• By adopting various coating methods and printing methods, large areas, continuous sheets, and high integration are possible.
• It activates environmental sensors and other equipment in factories and plants, utilizes them for abnormality/failure diagnosis, and enables the operation of IoT devices without a power supply/battery.

Uses

• Use of power supply/auxiliary power supply for equipment maintenance system and infrastructure anomaly detection system.
