Abstract

Thermoelectric materials are game-changers, that have the ability to transform waste heat into electrical energy, making them a potential renewable energy solution to reduce reliance on fossil fuels. The standard metric for evaluating thermoelectric materials is the dimensionless figure of merit, ZT, which is markedly influenced by lattice thermal conductivity (ĸl ). Higher thermal transport through the lattice lowers the ZT value, reducing the material’s efficiency. Therefore, finding ways to decrease ????l is critical for boosting thermoelectric performance. In our research, we explored an innovative approach by applying a quenching technique using liquid silicon to reduce thermal conductivity (ĸT ) due to lattice vibrations. We compared the lattice conductivity (ĸl ) of materials with and without this liquid silicon quenching process. The results were striking: at 300 K, quenching lowers the lattice thermal conductivity by about 40.1 %, and at 800 K, it is still reduced by roughly 24.7%compared with pristine PbTe. Even more impressive, when compared to non-quenched (PbTe)0.95 − (PbS)0.05 alloys, at 300 K, the silicon-quenched sample attains an additional ĸl reduction of roughly 16.1 %, while at 800 K the extra decrease is about 13.0%. These findings highlight that liquid silicon quenching is a highly effective method for lowering ĸl of PbTe thermoelectric materials. This approach paves the way for developing next-generation thermoelectric materials that are more efficient, particularly for eco-friendly waste heat recovery applications. Our work opens new possibilities for sustainable energy innovation.

Abstract

In the present study, Cu films were made over Al alloy using the electrodeposition technique. Electrodeposition conducted at various currents (80, 100, and 120 mA), with and without influence by a rotating magnetic field (100 rpm of rotation). 0.5 M CuSO4 + 20 mL of H2SO4 was used for electrolyte solutions. The sample before and after electrodeposition was weighed using digital scale to calculate deposition rate and current efficiency. All formed Cu films were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), Scanning electron microscopy equipped with Energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), and Potentiostat apparatus. Furthermore, antibacterial activity using Staphylococcus aureus was also investigated. Increasing the current of electrodeposition leads to an increase in deposition rate and current efficiency for both conditions (with and without rotating magnetic field influence). Based on the XRD and ATR-FTIR investigation, Cu was successfully deposited onto Al surface. Currents used for the electrodeposition process between 80-100 mA would result in a faceted structure, while using 120 mA results near to spheroidal. Shifting to higher currents leads to decreases in grain sizes and presenting a rotating magnetic field also enhances the grain size. Current and rotating magnetic influences are not linearly influencing corrosion potential, corrosion rate and antibacterial activity. The sample made using higher current plus influencing with a rotating magnetic field has less corrosion rate and higher area of inhibition at around 0.808 mmpy and 4.01 cm2.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of the application of a rotating magnetic field in the electrodeposition of copper (Cu). During the electrodeposition, five constant magnets were rotated (500 and 800 rpm) towards the bottom of the sample. To investigate deposition rate, surface morphology, phase, structure, corrosion resistance, and hardness in deposited Cu using a weighing scale, a scanning electron microscope equipped with energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), potentiodynamic polarization, and hardness tester respectively. Bacterial activity was also evaluated through this research. Morphological surface observations showed that the increase in the rotational speed of the magnets during the electrodeposition process led to a smooth surface. A perfect Cu phase covers Al alloy with no oxide. The potentiodynamic polarization demonstrated by the increase in the rotating led to a shift to the more positive value of the corrosion potential. Moreover, the corrosion current also decreases with the increase in the rotating speed of the magnets. Less crystallite size promoted forming a higher hardness and inhibition zone of the Cu films.
