Achieving Phonon‐Glass Electron‐Crystal Behavior in Fully Organic Flexible Thermoelectrics

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Phonon‐glass Electron‐crystal (PGEC) behavior is demonstrated in fully organic composites consisting of conductive polymers (PEDOT:PSS) and soft polymeric fillers (PVA). The optimized PEDOT:PSS–PVA composite concurrently reveals delocalized transport and thermal conductivity close to its theoretical minimum, yielding a superior thermoelectric figure of
