This up-to-date and detailed introduction first presents basic concepts and fundamental questions before introducing various bulk materials of increasing chemical and structural complexity. It then describes the role played by the electronic structure in the thermoelectric performance of different materials. It also considers novel materials based on organic semiconductors and conducting polymers as well as recent advances in thermoelectric phenomena at the nanoscale. Exercises with solutions can be used as control tests and reflect recent research.
