PhD Scholarship in Design and Optimization of Effective Segmented Thermoelectric Generator, Denmark

Study Subject(s):Fuel Cells and Solid State Chemistry
Course Level:PhD
Scholarship Provider: DTU
Scholarship can be taken at: Denmark


Eligibility:
•Master’s degree in chemistry, physics, materials science or a similar degree with an academic level equivalent to the master’s degree in engineering
•Experience with synthesis of inorganic materials
•Preferably prior knowledge in the area of thermoelectricity
•Experience with experimental methods for materials characterization
•Ability to work independently, to plan and carry out complicated tasks, and to be a part of a large, dynamical group
•Good communication skills in English, both written and spoken


Scholarship Open for International Students: No


Scholarship Description: The overall objective of the project is to design and develop a low-cost and stable segmented thermoelectric generator, which will use functionally graded materials to increase the working temperature range and efficiency. A scientific objective of this research is to elucidate the physical and chemical phenomena at the interfaces between similar or dissimilar thermoelectric materials in segments, and their influence on the thermal-to-electrical conversion efficiency under long-term operation.
