| As the figure of merit continues to increase through a continued research effort, the use of thermoelectricity for air cooling has become more feasible. |
| In May 11, 2007, a memorial board for the founder of thermoelectricity, Thomas Johann Seebeck, was disclosed in Tallinn. |
| Our discovery that a thermopower wave works best across these tubes because of their dual conductivity turns conventional thermoelectricity on its head. |
| The easiest way to think about thermoelectricity is to realize that electrical and thermal currents are coupled. |
| He now worked on thermodynamics, publishing three papers on applications to physical chemistry and thermoelectricity. |
| Sommerfeld also did detailed work on wave mechanics, and his theory of electrons in metals proved valuable in the study of thermoelectricity and metallic conduction. |
