Controlled construction of flexible thermoelectric composite films with submicron porous structure
To study polymer-based films with excellent flexibility and thermoelectric properties, we controllably construct poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-tosylate/polyether sulfone (PEDOT-Tos/PES) thermoelectric composite films with submicron porous structure ...

Promising thermoelectric properties of phosphorenes [PDF]
Electronic, phononic, and thermoelectric transport properties of single layer black- and blue-phosphorene structures are investigated with first-principles based ballistic electron and phonon transport calculations employing hybrid functionals. The maximum values of room temperature thermoelectric figure of merit, ZT corresponding to armchair and ...

Thermoelectric properties of Si–Ge whiskers [PDF]
Abstract Si–Ge solid solutions are known to be good high-temperature thermoelectric materials. The aim of the paper is to study the thermoelectric properties of Si–Ge ( x =0.01–0.11) whiskers in temperature range 4.2–500 K. Measurements were carried out on whiskers with a boron concentration in the vicinity to metal–insulator transition from ...

Thermoelectric Properties of Scandium Sesquitelluride [PDF]
Rare-earth (RE) tellurides have been studied extensively for use in high-temperature thermoelectric applications. Specifically, lanthanum and praseodymium-based compounds with the Th3P4 structure type have demonstrated dimensionless thermoelectric figures of merit (zT) up to 1.7 at 1200 K.

Thermoelectric properties of polycrystalline NiSi3P4 [PDF]
The Hall and Seebeck coefficients, electrical resistivity, and thermal conductivity of polycrystalline NiSi3P4 were characterized from 2 to 775 K. Undoped NiSi3P4 behaves like a narrow gap semiconductor, with activated electrical resistivity ρ below room temperature and a large Seebeck coefficient of ∼400 μV/K at 300 K. Attempts to substitute boron for

Carrier mobility does matter for enhancing thermoelectric performance
Excellent thermoelectric materials need both high carrier transport properties and low phonon transport properties simultaneously, which make it challenging to enhance thermoelectric performance. However, recent progress shows that sub-nanostructures can
