摘要: The interest in thermogalvanic cells (TGCs) has grown because it is a candidate technology for harvesting electricity from natural and waste heat. However, the cost of TGCs major component due to use platinum electrode. Here, we investigate new alternative electrode material based on conducting polymers, more especially poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-tosylate (PEDOT-Tos) together with ferro/ferricyanide redox electrolyte. power generated by PEDOT-Tos increases polymer thickness/multilayer reaches values similar flat TGCs. physics chemistry behind this exciting result as well identification limiting phenomena are investigated various electrochemical techniques. Furthermore, preliminary study provided stability
