Promoting thermoelectric technology to mitigate global climate change

News

  • Submitted by winnie.wong-ng@... on 2012-01-03

    This is to announce that a low temperature Seebeck coefficient Standard Reference Material (SRM 3451) is available from NIST. SRM 3451 allows members of the thermoelectric materials community the means to calibrate Seebeck coefficient measurement equipment (for bulk materials) in the temperature range 10 K to 390 K.

    SRM 3451 is a bar-shaped artifact (approximately 3.5 mm x 2.5 mm x 8.0 mm) of non-stoichiometric bismuth telluride (n-type, Te rich, Bi/Te ratio approximately 2/3, formula Bi2Te3+x). Certification measurements were performed using a differential steady state (DC) technique with a two probe arrangement. An interpolation function is provided for intermediate temperatures values between the thirty two base temperature values measured. The availability of this SRM will validate measurement results, leading to a better understanding of the structure/property relationships and underlying physics of potential high efficiency thermoelectric materials.

    For purchase information, please contact:

    Postdoc in Transport Properties of Novel Membrane Materials

    A position as postdoc in Transport Properties of Novel Membrane Materials is available at the Department of Engineering, Aarhus University, Denmark. The position is for a two year period starting as soon as possible.

    The postdoc will be part of a newly started group where one of the themes is investigations of transport properties of new membrane materials. The work environment is easy going and the successful candidate will have great opportunity to influence the contents of the projects.

    The main scope of the postdoc will be to search for new membrane materials with specialized ion transport properties for novel electrodialysis and power applications (including thermoelectric). The work involves synthesis and characterisation of membrane materials, in particular with respect to ionic transport properties and involves a range of techniques. Furthermore, it is expected that the postdoc takes part in the supervision and teaching of students at all levels.

    It is expected that the applicant has experience within synthesis/charachterisation of polymers/inorganic materials and/or measurement of transport properties (ionic/electrical transport properties, thermal conductivity etc). Applicants must have a relevant PhD and in addition have a keen interest in the projects and be able to work in a team.

    For more information please contact Associate Professor, Dr. Anders Bentien, Department of Engineering, Aarhus University, bentien@ase.au.dk, +45 30369515.

    Formalities and salary range

    The Faculty of Science refers to the Ministerial Order on the Appointment of Academic Staff at Danish Universities under the Danish Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation.

    Further information on qualification requirements and job content may be found in the Memorandum on Job Structure for Academic Staff at Danish Universities.

    The application must be in English and include a curriculum vitae, degree certificate, a complete list of publications, a statement of future research plans and information about research activities, teaching portfolio and verified information on previous teaching experience (if any). The recommended level of detail.

    Salary depends on seniority as agreed between the Danish Ministry of Finance and the Confederation of Professional Unions.

    Deadline

    All applications must be made online and received by: 22/01/2012
