The main thrust of my research is into materials for the thermoelectric power generation, a unique technique to generate electricity from, e.g., waste heat. Thermoelectric power generation is foreseen to play an increasing role in the near future, considering the pressing need for alternative energies due to declining natural resources. Increasing the efficiency of thermoelectric materials would further accelerate this development, which may be achieved discovering new materials as well as by improving established materials via nanostructuring or band structure engineering, for example.

我的研究的主要目的是投入热电发电的材料，这是一种独特的技术，可从浪费热量产生电力。考虑到由于自然资源的下降，热电发电在不久的将来可以在不久的将来发挥越来越多的作用。例如，提高热电材料的效率将进一步加速这一开发，例如，通过纳米结构或带状结构工程改善建立的材料，可以实现这一发展。
