“…Conventional thermoelectric modules are in rigid forms with ceramic plates on top and bottom sides which limit their application to flat surfaces. To overcome such limitation, thermoelectric devices based on a flexible substrate using a printing method [56][57][58][59][60][61][62] or structural design with inorganic bulk thermoelectric materials [25,26,47,63] have been researched. Thermoelectric materials used near room temperature are mainly Bi-Te based compounds, Bi 2-x Sb x Te 3 for p-type and Bi 2 Te 3-x Se x for n-type, due to its high thermoelectric performance [64,65].…”

“…Kim et al [66] demonstrate a flexible thermoelectric generator that powers a wireless sensor node while attached to a curved heat pipe, as in figure 2(a). For flexibility, the device consists of inorganic bulk thermoelectric materials embedded in a flexible polymer [25]. With the temperature of the heat pipe and ambient air set constant at 70°C and 20°C, respectively, in an experimental setup, a maximum power density of about 2.2 mW cm −2 is harvested.…”

“…Given its many advantages, a large number of studies have been carried out to investigate a wide spectrum of applications in military, medical, industrial, and telecommunications fields . For example, to generate power from a heat source that has an arbitrary shaped surface, flexible thermoelectric generators (TEGs) have been developed and studied …”
