generation. In the past decade, substantial improvements have been made to the …

Half-Heusler alloys are among the most promising thermoelectric materials. In the present
review, thermoelectric properties (at 300 K and 800 K) of more than 1100 compositions from …

This paper presents tables of key thermoelectric properties, which define thermoelectric
conversion efficiency, for a wide range of inorganic materials. The twelve families of …

Thermoelectric materials necessitate both high power factors and ZT values in practical
applications, as they determine the output power and conversion efficiency, respectively …

The thermoelectric figure‐of‐merit (zT) of p‐type MNiSn (M= Ti, Zr, or Hf) half‐Heusler
compounds is lower than their n‐type counterparts due to the presence of a donor in‐gap …

The full-Heusler (FH) inclusions in the half-Heusler (HH) matrix is a well-studied approach to
reduce the lattice thermal conductivity of ZrNiSn HH alloy. However, excess Ni in ZrNiSn …

Abstract Half-Heusler compounds MNiSn (M= Ti, Zr, Hf) have attracted increasing attentions
in the field of thermoelectrics, since their constituent elements are non-toxic and abundant …

The half-Heusler (HH) compound NbCoSn with 18 valence electrons is a promising
thermoelectric (TE) material due to its appropriate electrical properties as well as its suitable …

The density functional theory (DFT) calculations and experiments have confirmed that in the
ABC-type half-Heusler compounds, the 3d elements occupying the B position are natural …

Abstract The TiNiSn-based half-Heusler compounds have been considered as a promising
thermoelectric material system for waste heat recovery applications. There have been …
