Innovative Thermoelectric Energy Harvesting Technology

Meeting & Discussion

Ambient Power GenerationTM Device
New thermoelectric technology without temperature difference
｜Characteristics｜
No temperature difference required
Higher output at higher temperature
Easy flexible, large area and multilayer
｜Device Structure｜
It consists of an intermediate layer of uniformly dispersed nanoparticles (NPs) sandwiched between metal electrodes with different work function (WF).
｜Principle of Power Generation｜
harge is transferred by hopping conduction of electrons generated from one electrode to the other electrode via NPs due to the WF difference between the electrodes.

Our company is a startup founded in 2016 that is advancing the development and practical application of power generation technology that converts environmental heat into electricity. We are taking on the challenge of developing an innovative technology that can convert heat into electrical energy without relying on temperature differences, utilizing a completely new power-generation mechanism unlike anything before. By converting heat from our surroundings—such as environmental heat, body heat, heat emitted from various devices, and unused waste heat discharged from factories—into electricity, we aim to improve energy utilization efficiency and contribute to the realization of a carbon-neutral society.
