文摘
- •
Flexible thermoelectric generators were developed by a dispenser printing method.
- •
Theoretical analysis & experimental tests were performed on two prototypes.
- •
The prototypes were very flexible, twistable, and durable with the substrate.
- •
The voltage output is relatively higher than FTEGs reported in the literature.
