  Thermoelectric properties of novel 2D materials and Van der Waals heterostructures
University of Manchester School of Materials
  Dr A Kretinin
Application Deadline: 19 March 2019
Background. The discovery of graphene and first studies of its electrical and optical properties initiated the search of other two-dimensional (2D) materials with the properties complementing those of graphene.

  Halide perovskite thermoelectric materials
Queen Mary University of London School of Engineering and Materials Science
  Dr O Fenwick
Application Deadline: 31 January 2019
Thermoelectric materials generate a voltage from a temperature gradient. Thermoelectric generators made from these materials can recover waste heat and convert it into electrical power.

  Microscopic Mechanisms in Thermoelectric Materials
University of Warwick Department of Chemistry
  Dr M Senn
Applications accepted all year round
The project will involve understanding why particular structures and chemistries give rise to specific physical properties. The successful candidate will gain experience in making novel ceramic materials and characterising their physical properties and crystal structures.

  Nano Materials for Applications in Energy Recovery
University of Reading School of Chemistry
  Prof A.V. Powell
Applications accepted all year round
There is an opportunity to pursue a PhD in solid-state materials chemistry. The project will involve the synthesis of novel nano-scale materials for applications in thermoelectric energy harvesting.

  Nanophononic metamaterials: engineering phonons to convert between heat and electricity
University of York Department of Physics
  Dr P Hasnip
Application Deadline: 31 January 2019
Thermoelectrics are materials which convert temperature gradients into electricity, or vice versa. These materials can harvest waste heat from industrial processes, turning it into electricity, or use current to provide efficient cooling.

  Phase boundary mapping for the discovery of improved thermoelectrics
Heriot-Watt University School of Engineering & Physical Sciences
  Dr J W Bos
Application Deadline: 8 February 2019
Thermoelectrics convert waste heat into electricity and are considered an important component of a sustainable energy future. This project aims to improve the performance of Zintl-type thermoelectric materials based on abundant elements using phase boundary mapping.
Details
Type/Funding
  Development of hybrid energy recovery system to harvest energy from waste heat using TE materials
Kingston University Faculty of Science, Engineering and Computing
  Prof T Zhang, Dr H Hadavinia, Dr Y Lin
Applications accepted all year round
Over the past decade, there has been heightened interest in the field of thermoelectrics, driven by the need for more efficient materials for electronic refrigeration and power generation.

Type/Funding
  Guided self-assembly of organic semiconductors for printable electronics.
University College London Department of Chemistry
  Dr B Schroeder
Application Deadline: 31 March 2019
Solution processable molecular organic semiconductors are prime candidates to realise printable electronics. However a lack of control over molecular orientation and assembly is currently severely limiting their performance.
