Advancing efficiency and reliability in thermal analysis of laser powder-bed fusion
Christian Leinenbach, Rafal Wróbel, Thomas Mayer
In laser based powder-bed fusion of metals (PBF-LB/M), parts are fabricated by melting layers of powder using a high-intensity laser beam. During this process, the material is exposed to rapid cooling rates and intense thermal gradients, which are the unde ...
2023Investigation of thermoelectric nanomaterials
Thermoelectric conversion remains an active research field in light of its potential to enhance energy efficiency by waste heat recovery in a noise and wear-free manner.Nanostructuring is responsible for most of the recently reported improvements of the fi ...
EPFL2023Large Anomalous Nernst Angle in Co2MnGa Thin Film
Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Simon Granville, Junfeng Hu, Yao Zhang, Song Liu
The new trends for anomalous Nernst effect (ANE)-based thermoelectric devices require materials with large ANE values to realize the scalable generation of voltage. Recently, very large ANE values have been observed in single crystals of some novel magneti ...

Tiago Filipe Pimentel Das Neves
Fibre optics sensors have been identified as very good candidates for environmental monitoring inside the silicon detectors operated at CERN's Large Hadron Collider. The objective of this dissertation is the development of a Relative Humidity (RH) distribu ...
EPFL2022Correction of Human Forehead Temperature Variations Measured by Non-Contact Infrared Thermometer
Elevated body temperature (fever) can be a common symptom of a medical condition, such as a viral or bacterial infection, including SARS-CoV-2 or influenza. Non-contact infrared thermometers are able to measure forehead temperature in a timely manner and w ...

Basil Duval, Holger Reimerdes, Joaquim Loizu Cisquella, Davide Galassi, Cedric Kar-Wai Tsui, Roberto Maurizio, Mirko Wensing
Parallel convection and E × B drifts act together to redistribute heat between the strike-points mechanisms is enhanced near the secondary X-point and is shown to dominate over heat in the low field side snowflake minus (LFS SF−). The cumulative heat conve ...
2021Record thermopower found in an IrMn-based spintronic stack
Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Peng Gao, Haiming Yu, Sa Tu, Junfeng Hu, Jianyu Zhang, Yao Zhang, Song Liu
The Seebeck effect converts thermal gradients into electricity. As an approach to power technologies in the current Internet-of-Things era, on-chip energy harvesting is highly attractive, and to be effective, demands thin film materials with large Seebeck ...
2020High-Performance n-type SnSe Thermoelectric Polycrystal Prepared by Arc-Melting
Ferenc Simon, Bence Gábor Márkus
Tin selenide (SnSe) has notable thermoelectric properties, yet stable n-type polycrystalline SnSe is difficult to synthesize. Here, polycrystalline SnSe is easily prepared by arc-melting as robust pellets, with thermoelectric properties repeatably changing ...
