A cool advance in thermoelectric conversion | MIT News | Massachusetts Institute of Technology
An MIT team led by Mingda Li has achieved a breakthrough in thermoelectric generation, which offers a direct means of converting thermal energy, including waste heat, into electricity.
A quantum effect in topological semimetals demonstrated by MIT researchers could allow for the utilization of an untapped energy source. Steve Nadis | Department of Nuclear Science and Engineering Publication Date : December 11, 2020 Press Inquiries Press Contact : Ilavenil Subbiah Email: subbiah@mit.edu Phone: 617-680-0959 Nuclear Science and Engineering Close Caption : In a topological Weyl semimetal, the electronic properties are controlled by Weyl fermions, which do not possess any mass and to some extent resemble photons. When an external magnetic field is applied, these Weyl fermions are
