Abstract

This chapter discusses recent progress towards the development of carbon-based materials for thermoelectric applications. Various experimental and computational studies on carbon allotropes are covered. Specifically, we discuss the strategies for engineering graphene, graphene nanoribbon, graphene nanomesh, graphene nanowiggle, carbon nanotube, fullerene, graphyne, and carbon quantum dot for better thermoelectric performance. We also highlight the important charge and heat transfer mechanisms in carbon-based materials and state-of-the-art strategies for enhancing thermoelectric performance.
