Micropelt GmbH, a 2006 spin-off from a research cooperation between Infineon Technologies and Fraunhofer Institute IPM, Freiburg, Germany, develops, produces and markets the world’s smallest and most effective thermoelectric elements for clean-tech micro energy harvesting, thermal sensing, cycling and cooling.
Micropelt’s thermoelectric elements are based on a proprietary, scalable thermoelectric thin film and MEMS (Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems) micro-structuring platform technology. Micropelt’s unique and patented technology minimizes component size while maximizing power density, for energy harvesting, cooling or thermal cycling applications.
Batteries are becoming obsolete as free electric energy from waste heat powers wireless sensor networks for their entire life. Beyond that, micro thermogenerators can serve as highly sensitive and fast sensors of thermal changes and the quantification of heat flux with an unprecedented resolution
