Patent

CA 2651106

The present invention relates to a solid state cooling/power generating device is provided comprising a first and second electrode separated by a vacuum gap. According to the present invention at least one of the electrodes is provided with a nanoscaled semiconductor heterostructure (301), which comprises at least one quantum well which in combination with the vacuum gap (315) forms a double barrier resonance structure providing conditions which allows resonant tunneling between the first and second electrode.

La présente invention concerne un dispositif à semi-conducteurs de refroidissement ou de génération d'énergie comportant des première et seconde électrodes séparées par un intervalle de vide. Selon la présente invention, au moins une des électrodes est munie d'une hétérostructure à semi-conducteurs d'échelle nanométrique (301), comprenant au moins un puits quantique qui en combinaison avec l'intervalle de vide (315) forme une structure de résonance à double barrière entraînant des conditions qui permettent un effet tunnel résonnant entre les première et seconde électrodes.
