Thermoelectric materials for energy recovery
- Submission status

Thermoelectric energy recovery taps into the potential of waste heat, transforming it into electricity through thermoelectric materials. These materials generate a voltage when exposed to a temperature gradient, enabling them to harness energy from sources such as industrial processes, vehicle exhausts, and even human bodies. Improving the energy efficiency of technology is essential in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and for providing a sustainable solution for energy management.
In this cross-journal Collection between Communications Materials, Nature Communications, and Scientific Reports, we aim to bring together manuscripts covering new materials synthesis, device demonstrations, and analytical studies. We welcome the submission of manuscripts covering all aspects of research in these areas, from fundamental studies to applied large-scale demonstrations.
All participating journals invite submissions of original research articles, with Communications Materials and Nature Communications also considering Reviews and Perspectives which fall within the scope of the Collection. All the submissions will be subject to the same peer review process and editorial standard as regular Communications Materials, Nature Communications, and Scientific Reports articles.
This Collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 7: Affordable and Clean Energy.
This Collection is open for submissions from all authors – and not by invitation only – on the condition that the manuscripts fall within the scope of the Collection and of Communications Materials, Nature Communications and Scientific Reports more generally.
All manuscripts will be considered for publication according to the editorial policies of the specific journal which they are submitted through Communications Materials, Nature Communications and Scientific Reports. Visit Nature Portfolio’s Collections guidelines for more details.
When submitting your manuscript to Communications Materials, Nature Communications or Scientific Reports via our online submission system, please choose the appropriate Collection title from the drop-down menu on the submission form. Please be sure to express your interest in the Collection in your cover letter. Please only submit to one journal, but note authors have the option to transfer to another participating journal following the editors’ recommendation.
This Collection has not been supported by sponsorship.
