Giant thermoelectric power factor anisotropy in PtSb$_{1.4}$Sn$_{0.6}$ [PDF]
Inorganic Chemistry 61, 13586 (2022), 2022 We report giant anisotropy in thermoelectric power factor ($S^2\sigma$) of marcasite structure-type PtSb$_{1.4}$Sn$_{0.6}$. PtSb$_{1.4}$Sn$_{0.6}$, synthesized using ambient pressure flux growth method upon mixing Sb and Sn on the same atomic site, is a new phase different from both PtSb$_2$ and PtSn$_2$ that crystallize in the cubic $Pa\bar{3}$ pyrite
