论文摘要
常规的优异热电图和功率因数不足以作为热电材料薄膜质量的量度，在这种材料的薄膜质量中，功率转换效率取决于膜尺寸。通过考虑膜的尺寸，引入了有效的优异和有效塞贝克系数的热电图，以确保随着绩效的有效热电图的增加，最大能量转换效率会提高。同样，定义了有效的功率因数。通过引入BI $ _2 $ TE $ _3 $和PEDOT的典型材料属性，我们研究了有效的功绩和有效功率因数的厚度依赖性。
The conventional thermoelectric figure of merit and the power factor are not sufficient as a measure of thin film quality of thermoelectric materials, where the power conversion efficiency depends on the film dimensions. By considering the film size, the effective thermoelectric figure of merit and effective Seebeck coefficient are introduced to guarantee that the maximum energy conversion efficiency increases as the effective thermoelectric figure of merit increases. Similarly, the effective power factor is defined. By introducing typical material properties for Bi$_2$Te$_3$ and PEDOT, we study the thickness dependence of the effective figure of merit and the effective power factor.
