SubsidieMeestersElectroluminescent cooler prototype
This project aims to develop a compact optical cooler using electroluminescence for efficient cooling in the 50-200 K range, addressing limitations of current mechanical solutions.
Projectdetails
Introduction
Refrigeration is necessary in an ever-increasing number of technical applications with significant societal importance. The presently available solutions, however, have several shortcomings, especially in applications requiring extremely compact cooling with access to cryogenic temperatures.
Project Objectives
This project aims to provide the commercial incentive and a proof of concept for an optical cooler based on the thermodynamics of electroluminescence.
Targeted Cooling System
The targeted cooling system would allow a robust and compact cooling method that would primarily target cooling applications at the 50-200 K temperature range. These applications are presently largely inaccessible without using mechanical solutions.
Expected Outcomes
Through this project, we would learn more about:
- The validity of electroluminescent cooling (ELC) in practical applications.
- Its most likely pathways towards commercialization.
