He received the 2009 R&D 100 Award from R&D Magazine for work on advanced thin film thermoelectric materials and transfer of technology to industry. The R&D 100 Awards are presented each year by the Magazine to identify the 100 most significant newly introduced research and development advances in multiple disciplines.
Thermoelectric materials are used in thermoelectric systems for cooling or heating in niche applications, and are being studied as a way to regenerate electricity from waste heat. [3] Research in the field is still driven by materials development, primarily in optimizing transport and thermoelectric properties. [4]
Recent advances by some researchers and companies in low-cost thermoelectric materials have resulted in significant commercial promise for ATEGs, [18] most notably the low-cost production of tetrahedrite by Michigan State University [19] and its commercialization by US-based Alphabet Energy with General Motors.

Susan M. Kauzlarich is an American chemist and is presently a distinguished professor of chemistry at the University of California, Davis (UC Davis). [1] At UC Davis, Kauzlarich leads a research group focused on the synthesis and characterization of Zintl phases and nanoclusters with applications in the fields of thermoelectric materials, [2] [3] [4] magnetic resonance imaging, energy storage ...
Only a few known materials to date are identified as thermoelectric materials. Most thermoelectric materials today have a zT, the figure of merit, value of around 1, such as in bismuth telluride (Bi 2 Te 3) at room temperature and lead telluride (PbTe) at 500–700 K. However, in order to be competitive with other power generation systems, TEG ...
He obtained his PhD in Physics - Nanoelectronics from Lancaster University in 2016 and appointed as a Senior Research Associate at Lancaster University. He then was awarded a Leverhulme Early Career Fellowship in 2017 [2] and a UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship in 2019 [3] and in 2023 to exploit quantum and phonon interference in molecular-scale thermoelectric materials for energy harvesting and ...

A sketch of the design problem. The aim of the design problem is to spatially distribute two materials, Material A and Material B, to maximise a performance measure such as cooling power or electric power output Design evolution for an off-diagonal thermoelectric generator. The design solution of an optimisation problem solved for electric ...
