In this study, the dense bulk Cu2Se thermoelectric (TE) materials were prepared by microwave melting and hot pressing sintering. The effects of different cooling processes on the microstructure and TE properties of Cu2Se were investigated. The results showed that the Cu2Se TE material prepared by microwave synthesis had high electrical conductivity, which was about 105 S⋅ m[Formula: see text]. The annealing process can lead to grain growth of Cu2Se and the formation of micropores in the Cu2Se, which deteriorated the thermal conductivity. The Cu2Se material prepared by the microwave melting and slow cooling process had the best TE performance, and the ZT value can reach 0.68 at 700 K.

Smart clothing, which can be manufactured based on smart textiles with electrical conductivity, can be used as a transmission line to transmit signals. The performance of the fabricated textile-based transmission line can be determined by evaluating light-emitting diode consistency. In this study, a textile-based transmission line was fabricated by impregnating two concentrations of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene): poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT: PSS) to impart the electrical conductivity to a polyurethane (PU) nanoweb. Three conditions of thermal treatment were conducted to decrease the electrical resistance, and the thickness, electrical, surface, and chemical properties were evaluated. The thickness of the specimens tended to decrease at the low concentration, and the thermal treatment temperature increased. The linear resistances decreased from 1580 Ω/cm (PA) to 310.6 Ω/cm (PB120) as the concentration of PEDOT: PSS and thermal treatment temperature increased. Field emission scanning electron microscope images show that the PU nanoweb was uniformly and successfully impregnated with PEDOT: PSS. Raman spectra indicate an effect of the thermal treatment on the structural change of the PEDOT chains, which suggests an electrical resistance change of specimens. As a result, the optimum concentration of the PEDOT: PSS impregnated PU nanoweb as a transmission line for smart textiles is 2.6 wt%, and the thermal treatment temperature is 120℃. The performance of the textile-based transmission line (PB120) according to the length was higher as the length of the specimen was shorter. The highest consistency was 51 lm/m2 (50 mm), and the lowest was 45 lm/m2 (150 mm). Therefore, the PEDOT: PSS/PU nanoweb has applicability and feasibility as a transmission line.

Abstract Single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and Bi2Te3 nanoplates are very promising thermoelectric materials for energy harvesting. When these two materials are combined, the resulting nanocomposites exhibit high thermoelectric performance and excellent flexibility. However, simple mixing of these materials is not effective in realizing high performance. Therefore, we fabricated integrated nanocomposites by adding SWCNTs during solvothermal synthesis for the crystallization of Bi2Te3 nanoplates and prepared flexible integrated nanocomposite films by drop-casting. The integrated nanocomposite films exhibited high electrical conductivity and an n-type Seebeck coefficient owing to the low contact resistance between the nanoplates and SWCNTs. The maximum power factor was 1.38 μW/(cm K2), which was 23 times higher than that of a simple nanocomposite film formed by mixing SWCNTs during drop-casting, but excluding solvothermal synthesis. Moreover, the integrated nanocomposite films maintained their thermoelectric properties through 500 bending cycles.

Poly Styrene Sulfonate

Prominent enhancement in the room temperature electrical conductivity of spin-coated poly(3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) thin films has been achieved after treatment with various acids. The conductivity of PEDOT:PSS films could be enhanced from 0.6[Formula: see text]S/cm to over 3300[Formula: see text]S/cm after treatment with trifluoromethanesulfonic acid i.e., by a factor of 5500. It is noteworthy that the conductivity enhancement is nonmonotonic with respect to acid concentration i.e., the magnitude of increase in the conductivity exhibited a strong dependence over the molarity of acids. The possible reason of the conductivity enhancement is the improvement of nanoscale connectivity between the conducting PEDOT chains after acid treatment that results in highly conductive film. The improvement in the nanoscale connectivity is caused due to the loss of PSS from the PEDOT:PSS films after acid treatment that is confirmed through atomic force microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.

Poly Styrene Sulfonate

Conductive poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) is widely used for practical applications such as energy conversion and storage devices owing to its good flexibility, processability, high electrical conductivity, and superior optical transparency, among others. However, its hygroscopic character, short durability, and poor thermoelectric performance compared to inorganic counterparts has greatly limited its high-tech applications. In this work, PEDOT:PSS/SnO2 nanocomposites have been prepared via a simple, low cost, environmentally friendly method without the use of organic solvents or compatibilizing agents. Their morphology, thermal, thermoelectrical, optical, and mechanical properties have been characterized. Electron microscopy analysis revealed a uniform dispersion of the SnO2 nanoparticles, and the Raman spectra revealed the existence of very strong SnO2-PEDOT:PSS interactions. The stiffness and strength of the matrix gradually increased with increasing SnO2 content, up to 120% and 65%, respectively. Moreover, the nanocomposites showed superior thermal stability (as far as 70 °C), improved electrical conductivity (up to 140%), and higher Seebeck coefficient (about 80% increase) than neat PEDOT:PSS. On the other hand, hardly any change in optical transparency was observed. These sustainable nanocomposites show considerably improved performance compared to commercial PEDOT:PSS, and can be highly useful for applications in energy storage, flexible electronics, thermoelectric devices, and related fields.
