CA 2696013

A thermoelectric device that can exhibit substantially high specific power density is provided. The device includes core having a p-type element made from carbon nanotube and an n-type element. The device also includes a heat plate in and a cool plate, between which the core can be positioned. The design of the thermoelectric device allows the device to operate at substantially high temperature and to generate substantially high power output, despite being light weight. A method for making the thermoelectric device is also provided.

L'invention concerne un dispositif thermoélectrique qui peut afficher une densité de puissance spécifique sensiblement élevée. Le dispositif comprend un noyau ayant un élément de type p constitué d'un nanotube en carbone et d'un élément de type n. Le dispositif comprend également une plaque chauffante et une plaque refroidissante, entre lesquelles le noyau peut être positionné. La conception du dispositif thermoélectrique permet au dispositif de fonctionner à une température sensiblement élevée et à générer une sortie de puissance sensiblement élevée, en dépit du fait d'être léger. Un procédé de fabrication du dispositif thermoélectrique est également proposé.
