Abstract

The use of energy it is argued started about two million years ago when humans started cooking their food using firewood. As humans developed new skills with increased activities, energy interaction and usage emerged. Energy was used not only for domestic functions but also for space applications. With industrialization, humans realized that energy was needed to move machines and do other things as well. In this quest, and without understanding the consequences of using fossil fuels extensively, many problems arose. Researchers in energy embarked on a journey to study different forms of energy. To understand different needs, researchers have tried to come up with ways in which small-scale energy harvesting can be adapted to different needs that do not require heavy-duty energy production.This book attempts to present a number of ideas regarding a few selected small-scale energy harvesting methods and techniques as well as theories and products that may be helpful in improving the quality of life. Some of the new products are still in the prototype stage, while others are already being utilized. Many researchers in small-scale energy harvesting and those aspiring to follow this path of research will find this book not only motivating but also a useful guide in their endeavors.

Abstract

Dieses Lehrbuch vermittelt die material-, produktions- und anwendungstechnischen Grundlagen für alle elektronischen Materialklassen. Mit zahlreichen, überwiegend farbigen, Abbildungen und Fragen zur Lernzielkontrolle bereitet es auf die Prüfungen und Klausuren vor. Durch die Angabe internationaler Termini erleichtert es gleichzeitig den Einstieg in spezialisierte Fachliteratur. Besondere Schwerpunkte dieses Lehrbuchs liegen auf der Behandlung von Halbleitern und Graphen. Das gesamte behandelte Themenspektrum ist sowohl für Studierende technischer als auch naturwissenschaftlicher Fächer relevant. Anhand von Tafeln wird die Verzahnung von beiden verdeutlicht, gleichzeitig geben sie eine Vertiefung bzw. Ergänzung des Grundlagenwissens. Somit bietet sich dieses Buch als Begleiter für mehrere Phasen des Studiums an. Der Inhalt Leiter und Metalle Halbleiter Graphen und weitere Kohlenstoffallotrope< Isolatoren und Dielektrika Supraleiter Magnetische Materialien Thermoelektrika Die Zielgruppe Studierende an technischen Fakultäten, insbesondere mit den Schwerpunkten Energietechnik, Materialwissenschaften, Nanotechnologie Studierende naturwissenschaftlicher Fakultäten, insbesondere der Fächer Physik, Materialphysik, Chemie Dozenten, Lehrbeauftragte, Doktoranden Über den Autor Prof. Dr.-Ing Peter Wellmann ist Professor am Lehrstuhl für Materialien der Elektronik und Energietechnologie an der Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, er ist aktives Mitglied in mehreren Gesellschaften und wurde 2013 mit dem "Preis für gute Lehre 2012" ausgezeichnet.
