Progress in Research on Functionally Graded Thermoelectric Materials

Functionally graded thermoelectric material is make each part of thermoelectric materials work properly at each temperature to achieve the best figure of merit and can expand temperature range. The high thermoeletric conversion efficiency is insured. The basic theory of thermoelectric materials and the functionally graded design are introduced in this paper. The research progress to functionally graded thermoelectric materials in the domestic and international is described.
