    Abstract Wearable thermoelectric generators are attracting tremendous interest due to their capability of converting the human body heat into electricity for powering electronics. In order to reduce the parasitic thermal resistance and enhance the efficiency of the energy harvesting process, the compliance of the device is required by introducing stretchable structures or materials. Thus, in this work, we present a novel stretchable thermoelectric generator (STEG) with 50 pairs of bulk thermoelectric legs connected by the kirigami-inspired flexible electrodes. The device was fabricated by a sacrificial layer assisted soldering fabrication method and its generation performances were characterized under natural and forced convection, as well as constant temperature difference conditions, respectively. The results indicated that the generated power density of the STEG under convection was enhanced by improving the cold-side air velocity, and the power density of the device under constant temperature difference conditions could be promoted with order of magnitudes to 2.7 mW/cm² at ΔT = 50 K. Besides, the STEG features reliable during the cycling of 30 % tensile strain load and bending with a radius of 5 mm, respectively. Finally, various practical applications of the STEG were investigated including the wearable power supply and temperature detector for human proximity/contact testing and high-temperature alert. Our results demonstrate that the proposed STEG configuration displays high output performance that could be utilized for wearable electronics applications.

    Abstract High purity germanium (HPGe) detector is a preferred choice for determining the activity of the radioactive samples for nuclear diagnostics of Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) experiments. Although the amounts of the radiochemical sample are limited, activity measurement at a close distance between the detector window and the radioactive source is a feasible method. Efficiency calibration of gamma rays at a close distance from the surface of a HPGe detector is crucial. Considering the problem of the coincidence at a close distance, the alternative way is to construct a precise model of the HPGe detector and then to calculate efficiency accurately at an arbitrary distance from the surface of the HPGe detector using Monte Carlo method. In this paper, internal geometry and structure except for dead layers of the HPGe detector is obtained by X-ray radiography and 3D reconstruction. The optimal dead layers of the germanium crystal are determined by tracing the minimal sum squared residual (SSR) of gamma-ray efficiencies between calculations and measurements for standard planar sources. Nonhomogeneous distribution of the dead layer is supposed according to the inner structure on the Ge crystal. The final results show that the corrected model improves the accuracy of the calculated efficiencies.

    Abstract With ability of converting the heat harvested from human body into electricity, the wearable thermoelectric generators (WTEGs) are attracting lots of interests for self-powered electronic devices. However, the output power density of the WTEG is limited for supplying the electronic devices. Therefore, the performance enhancement by optimal design of the developed WTEGs is needed. In this paper, a method of comprehensive modeling of a WTEG is proposed by considering all essential components and realistic boundary conditions. By solving the model with finite element modeling (FEM) method, the calculation performances agree well with experimental results at various temperature difference and load resistance. Through the temperature and voltage distribution of the WTEG obtained, the effects of side heat loss and heat conduction of the encapsulation are revealed. Besides, the impact of the thermal conductivity of encapsulation and the geometric dimensions of thermoelectric legs on the output performance are explored. Finally, the performance prediction results indicate that at the temperature difference of 15 K, the output power of the WTEG with optimized design can be improved about 598.1% with matched loading resistance compared to the device with original design.

    Abstract Ion implantation is used to build a nanometer scale anti-ferromagnetic (AFM) cluster embedded exchange bias (EB) system. Ni film with a thickness of 100 nm is deposited on the Si (100) substrate using magnetron sputtering, 140 keV O+ is chosen to implant into the Ni film to form NiO AFM clusters, of which the size is estimated by X-ray diffraction based on synchrotron radiation (SR-XRD). By measuring hysteresis loop after field-cooling, significant shifts of loop along the applied field are observed. By increasing the implantation dose up to 3 x 10(17)/cm2 and annealing samples in N2 atmosphere, we discuss the origin of EB effect observed and the size confinement effect which lowers down the Néel temperature (T(N)) of NiO cluster to below room temperature.
