Selective Interfacial Barriers Drive High‐Performance GeTe Thermoelectrics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Carrier‐phonon decoupling is the key to developing high‐performance thermoelectric materials. Here, we demonstrate that selective interfacial barriers can decouple carrier and phonon transport, thus achieving an exceptional peak ZT of ∼2.7 at 773 K, along with a record‐high average ZT of 1.9 across 300–773 K in the (Ge0.82Mn0.04Bi0.04Pb0.1Te)0.99(VSe2 ...

Thermoelectric Gating Organic Electrochemical Transistors Enabled by Printable Ionogels With n‐p Convertible Thermopower

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A type of thermoelectric ionogels with convertible n‐p thermopowers are demonstrated with Seebeck coefficients ranging from ‐3.61 to +9.74 mV K−1. Thus, thermoelectric gating organic electrochemical transistor is achieved by employing ionogel as thermoelectric modules and ionic dielectrics simultaneously, paving the road to self‐powered, highly ...

Coupled Vacancy and Phonon‐Scattering Engineering Drive Defect Evolution Toward Multifunctional High‐Performance Bi2Te3 Thermoelectrics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ZnSb reduces carrier concentration and suppresses Te volatilization, while Se substitution within QLs softens phonons and enhances anharmonicity. Swapped bilayers near twin boundaries strengthen phonon scattering and interlayer bonding. As a result, the optimal sample achieves an ultra‐high zT ∼1.51, cooling temperature difference of ∼70 K, power ...
