Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="advs201500015-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>An n‐type pyromellitic diimide polymer composite with in situ microstructure</bold> growth of the common element compound SnCl₂ reaches power factor of 50–100 μW m⁻¹ K⁻², the highest purely n‐type polymer composite power factor yet reported. The composite has a gigantic Seebeck coefficient between −4000 and −5000 μV K⁻¹, many times higher than other polymer composites. <graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgjzsj8j5h" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></p> </abstract>
