I saw how the peltier effect works and I found out that the specific heat of pb/sn solder is extremely low. I was wondering whether this has ever been used for this quality in heatsinks. If not, there should be a way to implement it, like coating a higher-specific-heat heatpipe modified for high surface area (essentially a one-metal heatsink coated in it) and then just use it as you would a normal cooler.
disclaimer- I am completely unaware of whether there is some obvious factor about the peltier effect that makes what I said sound retarded to someone who knows more about it.
