The unique merit of the implantable thermoelectric generator lies in its direct utilization of the temperature difference intrinsically existing throughout the whole biological body. Therefore, it can resolve the service life mismatch between the IMD and its battery. In order to promoting the TEG maximum power, a piece of radioisotope fuel was fixed on the TEG hot junction. Recurring to the thermal energy released during disintegration of radioactive isotope, it can guarantee a marked promotion in the temperature difference across the implanted TEG; consequently apply enough power for the IMDs.

Thermoelectric Generator Module

Research has an objective to develop and fabricate thermoelectric generator module (TEGM) from the p-Ca3Co4O9 and n-CaMnO3 ceramic materials.The p-n materials were cut and polished to the dimension of 2 × 2 × 2 mm3 and 42 couples.The relationship between temperature difference and electrical voltage, electrical current, electrical power and conversion efficiency were measured. The electricity and efficiency of TEGM showed the maximum value of 5 V, 4.5 mA, 22.5 mW and 0.03 % at temperature difference of 100 K.
