Thermoelectric nanowires for dense 3D printed architectures.

The large-scale employment of 3D printed inorganic thermoelectrics is primarily constrained because of their lower efficiencies as compared to those fabricated from conventional methods such as spark plasma sintering and hot-pressing. This originates from the significant challenge in the densification of printed parts, particularly through the direct-ink-writing fabrication process, which demands a high binder content for printability. To achieve high-density printed thermoelectrics, the ink formulation process often involves the addition of substantial filler content and sintering aids, coupled with prolonged sintering periods.
