Thermal Transport

Thermoelectric materials can be rapidly characterized using the Thermal Transport Option of the Quantum Design PPMS Dynacool. This option can simultaneously measure a sample's thermal conductivity, Seebeck coefficient, and electrical resistivity. A continuous data acquisition mode allows for higher density curves to be collected in less time to increase throughput for a typically time-consuming measurement. Temperature can be varied in the range 1.8 K < T < 400 K.
