Abstract

This work reports the development of a micro thermoelectric generator based on planar technology using electrochemical deposited process with constantan and copper thermocouples on a micromachined silicon substrate. This configuration was selected because it can be manufactured into large area, flexible substrates, and the selected materials can be deposited with low-cost process. Efficiency of the module was investigated in different working condition, showing a maximum generated potential of 118 V/cm2 and a power of 1.1 μW/cm2. Constantan alloy electrodeposited at different deposition potential was characterized by Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDX) and Scattering Electronic Spectroscopy (SEM) to observe the morphology and composition of the films.
