Novel Material Efficiently Produces Electrical Current from Temperature Differences

Thermoelectric materials are capable of changing heat into electrical energy. This can be attributed to the so-called Seebeck effect—that is, when both ends of the thermoelectric material have a temperature difference, an electrical voltage can be produced and the current can begin to flow.
