Hybrid and Fully Thermoelectric Solar Harvesting by Dario Narducci, Peter Bermel, Bruno Lorenzi, Ning Wang, Kazuaki Yazawa.

This book provides a comprehensive overview on fully thermal and hybrid solar generators based on thermoelectric devices. The book fills a gap in the literature on solar conversion and thermoelectrics, because despite the growing number of papers dealing with the use of thermoelectrics in solar powe...
