Skutterudite unicouple characterization for energy harvesting applications

Skutterudites are promising thermoelectric materials because of their high figure of merit, ZT, and good thermomechanical properties. This work reports the effective figure of merit, ZT[subscript eff], and the efficiency of skutterudite legs and a unicouple working under a large temperature differen...
