Abstract
Rectifying and thermocouple junctions have been achieved using electrically dissimilar Portland cement pastes. The preferred junction is a pn-junction involving steel fiber cement paste in-type) and carbon fiber cement paste (p-type). For this junction, the thermocouple sensitivity is 70 muV/degrees C.
