Thermoelectric (TE) materials facilitate direct heat-to-electricity conversion. The performance
of a TE material is characterised by its figure of merit zT (= S 2 σT/κ) that depends on both …

The binary skutterudite CoSb 3 is a narrow bandgap semiconductor thermoelectric (TE)
material with a relatively flat band structure and excellent electrical performance. However …

We report a significant enhancement of the thermoelectric performance of p-type SnTe over
a broad temperature plateau with a peak ZT value of∼ 1.4 at 923 K through In/Cd codoping …

The research on skutterudites in the last few years has contributed to a better understanding
of the physical processes which play an important role in enhancing their thermoelectric …

Increasing energy demands require new materials, eg, thermoelectrics, for efficient energy

As a most promising mid‐temperature thermoelectric material, CoSb3‐based bulk material
exhibits an applicable figure‐of‐merit (ZT) of more than one. However, their fabrication is …

Thermoelectric materials can directly convert heat to electricity and vice versa. ZT (= S 2 σ
T/κ) is usually used for evaluating the performance of thermoelectric materials. Improving ZT …
