This book includes updated theoretical considerations which
provide an insight into avenues of research most likely to result
in further improvements in material performance. It details the
latest techniques for the preparation of thermoelectric materials
employed in energy harvesting, together with advances in the
thermoelectric characterisation of nanoscale material. The book
reviews the use of neutron beams to investigate phonons,
whose behaviour govern the lattice thermal conductivity and
includes a chapter on patents.
