In article number 1702024 , Marisol Martin‐Gonzalez and co‐workers, fabricate Ag 2 Se films with a novel technique (pulsed reactive sputtering). The obtained films are state‐of‐the‐art for this thermoelectric material in applications close to room temperature. This scalable technique and the good quality of the obtained films opens the door to develop a new generation of wearable devices powered by transforming human heat into electricity.
