in Chemical science
| Description | An important key finding of our work has been that thermoelectric performance can be preserved from the single-molecule level to thin films. This is an important step towards real-life "molecular" thermoelectric devices. |
| Exploitation Route | Device engineers can start to consider how molecular thin-films could be integrated into new devices. |
