Samsung’s upcoming pay-generation of Peltier Cooling Technology, Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, has received a 2025R&D 100 award, apparently known as the Nobel Prize and innovation of Engineering. The award is given by R&D World Magazine and recognizes the 100 most innovative technologies in the world every year.
Peltier Cooling Tech was unveiled earlier this year at a publication of Journal Nature Communications. Samsung Engineers worked with the thermoelectrics research team of Ram Venkatasubramanian, using nanotechnology to improve the efficiency and performance of the pilot device, which can be harmful to the environment for cooling rather than traditional refrigerants.
This research has improved the efficiency of peltier devices by up to 75% while only 0.1% of the content is required compared to the previous pay generation. This, in the future, should allow small, lightweight cooling devices that are environmentally friendly.
Perhaps in the very near future, this can be used for cars, data centers, homes, offices fiso and more. Samsung has used the first peltier cooling device in its AI hybrid refrigerator that was shown in the IFA last year.
