SOME HEAVY METAL SILICIDES HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AS VERY PROMISING HIGH TEMPERATURE THERMOELECTRIC MATERIALS THAT SHOULD YIELD MUCH HIGHER FIGURES-OF-MERIT THAN THE PRESENTLY USED SILICON-GERMANIUM-BAS ...

THE PROPOSED PROGRAM PRESENTS A PLAN TO DEVELOP THE PRELIMINARY DESIGN OF A SECONDARY THERMOELECTRIC POWER PLAN THAT CAN BE USED IN THE COAST GUARD'S MAJOR AIDS TO NAVIGATION. THIS DESIGN WILL TAKE TH ...

THE WORK FUNCTION IS THE ENERGY NEEDED TO REMOVE AN ELECTRON FROM A METAL SURFACE, SUCH AS IN THERMIONIC EMISSION. A LOWER WORK FUNCTION ALLOWS THE EMITTING SURFACE TO OPERATE AT A MUCH REDUCED TEMPER ...

BETTER HIGH TEMPERATURE (1000-2000K) ELECTRICAL CONDUCTORS ARE NEEDED TO MINIMIZE THE TRANSMISSION (I2R) LOSSES ASSOCIATED WITH SPACE-BASED POWER SUPPLIES AND RAIL GUNS FOR BOTH SPACE AND TERRESTRIAL ...

P-TYPE BORON-CARBON (B-C) ALLOYS OVER THE SINGLE-PHASE REGION B9C TO B4C EXHIBIT VERY UNUSUAL SEMICONDUCTOR PROPERTIES. FOR EXAMPLE, BOTH THE SEEBECK COEFFICIENT AND ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY INCREASE W ...
