Journal of Contemporary Physics (Armenian Academy of Sciences) Aims and scope

Abstract

Experimental results that demonstrate the electric power generation by using thermoelectric generator on CeB6 crystal at temperatures below 10 K are presented. The dependence of output power, electric current and efficiency of the generator at various external heating power, loads and ambient temperature are studied. The features of the obtained current-voltage characteristics of the superconductor, fed by the electric current of thermoelectric generator are discussed.
