摘要
Recent experiments with thermal to electric energy conversion in diode-like thermoelectric semiconductor structures show enhanced short-circuit currents and open-circuit voltages compared with thermoelectric performance. The experimental results are consistent with a current injection effect. We review the models that we have proposed to account for the effect.
