Thomas Johann Seebeck
Thomas Johann Seebeck
Our namesake is Thomas Johann Seebeck, who discovered the thermoelectric effect, aka. the Seebeck effect. Seebeck was a pioneer in Estonian electronics, which explains the choice 🙂.
Thomas Johann Seebeck (1770–1831) was a Baltic German physicist and physician best known for discovering the thermoelectric effect in 1821. He found that a circuit made of two different metals produces a voltage when subjected to a temperature difference, a principle now known as the Seebeck effect—a fundamental concept in thermoelectrics. His work laid the foundation for thermoelectric generators and sensors used in modern applications like power generation and temperature measurement.
