Design principles for 3D thermoelectric materials in power generators
We propose a universal theoretical framework for 3D thermoelectric leg design that integrates geometry, material properties, and boundary conditions. Experimental validation with printed (Bi,Sb) 2 Te 3 demonstrates up to 466% efficiency improvement.
