Question:

Calculate the thermoelectric efficiency ZT for a device for which the conductivity is 105 siemens/cm, the thermal conductivity is κ = 5 W/Km, and the Seebeck coefficient α is 200 μV/kb, T = 300 K.

Write down the formula for the Seebeck coefficient of a free electron system and a wide bandgap semiconductor. Calculate it for crystalline Al metal and semic. AlAs at T = 300 K, extract parameters from Google.
