Exploiting disorder to harvest thermal energy: the potential of 2D magnets for thermoelectric applications

A temperature gradient is applied to a CrSBr thin film to measure its thermoelectric response. Credit: Alessandra Canetta Thermoelectric systems are a green and sustainable way to harvest energy from any form of heat that would otherwise be wasted. At the core of this energy conversion process is the so-called Seebeck effect, which describes the … Read more
