The ceramic processing and thermoelectric characterisation
expertise in the FMD group has been recently highlighted in an invited review
in Chemistry of Materials. The paper, part of a major special edition of the journal,
covered the major aspects of lab-based ceramic processing, and the standards
required for reliable thermoelectric measurements, and gives a step-by-step
guide to making high quality, reproducible ceramics using solid state
processing. It also covers the major techniques and potential pitfalls associated
with the characterisation of thermoelectric properties in n-type ceramics.
January’s special edition comprises a series of articles from
internationally recognised groups, containing protocols and “trade secrets” in
a wide variety of research areas, direct from the researchers in the field, and
we were very pleased to be included in this wide ranging edition.
The full reference is as follows:
Protocols for the Fabrication, Characterization, and Optimization of n-Type Thermoelectric Ceramic Oxides
R. Boston , W. L. Schmidt, G. D. Lewin, A. C. Iyasara, Z. Lu, H. Zhang, D. C. Sinclair, and I. M. Reaney, Chem. Mater. 29 (2017), 265-280.
