Abstract: A process for producing a thermoelectric material based on two or more elements selected in the group constituted by Bi, Sb, Te and Se, which process comprises:
i. an alloying step wherein determined amounts of the elements Bi, Sb, Te or Se are mixed until an homogenous powdered alloy is obtained;
ii. an extrusion step of the powdered homogenous alloy obtained in the preceding step.
The elements Bi, Sb, Te or Se being preferably mechanically mixed in an homogenous powdered alloy.
The thermoelectric material, which are obtainable by this process, exhibits improved thermoelectric and mechanical properties and are therefore suitable, for example, as cooler, as temperature stabilizer in a electronic device or as power generator.

Abstract: The endless track is made of a reinforced rubber material with longitudinally spaced and transversely disposed ridges or lugs. It is particularly well-adapted for recreational snowmobiles having a single track. The track is characterized in that the rubber material of the central portion of the body has a hardness of between 75 and 90 duro A while the rubber material of the opposite band portions of the body has a hardness between 55 and 75 duro A. Such track facilitates the steering capabilities of a snowmobile, particularly when the snowmobile is traveling on hard and abrasive surfaces. It also improves the durability of the track.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of iteratively, selectively tuning the impedance of integrated semiconductor devices, by modifying the dopant profile of a region of low dopant concentration by controlled diffusion of dopants from one or more adjacent regions of higher dopant concentration through the melting action of a focussed heating source, for example a laser. In particular the method is directed to increasing the dopant concentration of the region of lower dopant concentration, but may also be adapted to decrease the dopant concentration of the region.
