摘要
Thin film thermoelectric cooling devices based on the Peltier effect are fabricated using a p-Sb2Te3-n-Bi2Te3 thin film thermocouple. The observed values of maximum temperature difference (DELTA-T) between the hot (T(h)) and cold end (T(c)) for a single-stage device is about 13 K, whereas that for a two-stage cascade arrangement is about 19 K. The figure of merit of these thermocouples is calculated and the implications are discussed.
