- Abstract
The transverse thermoelectric effect is unique in that an output voltage can be extracted in the direction perpendicular to the input temperature gradient. This paper describes how this transverse feature can be exploited to realize simple and promising configurations of thermoelectric devices. For detection of thermal radiation, two-dimensional imaging has been demonstrated by a fabricated sensor array of tilt-oriented CaCoO epitaxial thin film. We have also developed a serpentine heat flux sensor made of multilayered Bi/Cu, and BiSbTe/Ni tubular thermoelectric devices for power generation. The fabrication processes and test results are presented.
