Thermoelectric (TE) materials have attracted tremendous research interests over the past
few decades, due to their application in power generation technology from waste heat …

The elastic behavior of a material can be a powerful tool to decipher thermal transport. In
thermoelectrics, measuring the elastic moduli—directly tied to sound velocity—is critical to …

The thermoelectric properties of Ag-doped SnS samples synthesized by mechanical alloying
followed by spark plasma sintering were studied. We report that SnS possesses a high …

The structural phase transition in GeTe has been investigated by neutron diffraction in the

Optical-absorption measurements in the near infrared have enabled us to determine the
direct and indirect band gaps of SnS and SnSe layered compounds, in the a and b …

The lattice dynamics and high-temperature structural transition in SnS and SnSe are
investigated via inelastic neutron scattering, high-resolution Raman spectroscopy and …

Group-IV monochalcogenides are a family of two-dimensional puckered materials with an
orthorhombic structure that is comprised of polar layers. In this article, we use first principles …

The structural behavior of the three silver (I) halides AgCl, AgBr, and AgI has been
investigated to pressures p∼ 13–16 GPa using angle-dispersive x-ray diffraction with an …

The anharmonic phonon properties of SnSe in the P nma phase were investigated with a
combination of experiments and first-principles simulations. Using inelastic neutron …

Eco-friendly tin sulfide (SnS) has attracted increasing attention in the thermoelectric
