“…[57] Within the low-temperature range (<500 K), the zT values of these materials are generally lower than unity. [14,27,58] Among them, Bi 2 Te 3 - [31,[59][60][61] and Bi 0.5 Sb 1.5 Te 3based [62][63][64] materials show room-temperature zT values of >1 (Figure 6a) and have an applicable energy conversion efficiency for wearable electrocardiographic systems. [16,27,65,66] However, the rigidity of these materials is a major obstacle because it significantly effects the comfort of the person wearing the system and the coupling of the device to the body heat source.…”
