Oxidation-enhanced thermoelectric efficiency in a two-dimensional phosphorene oxide
We performed density functional theory calculations to investigate the thermoelectric properties of phosphorene oxide (PO) expected to form by spontaneous oxidation of phosphorene.

The Effect of Width-Mismatch of Modulated Nanowaveguides on the Thermoelectric Efficiency
Width-modulated nanowaveguides are promising for thermoelectric efficiency enhancement because electron and phonon transport properties can be geometrically tuned for improved performance.

Impact of Fano and Breit-Wigner resonances in the thermoelectric properties of nanoscale junctions [PDF]
We show that the thermoelectric properties of nanoscale junctions featuring states near the Fermi level strongly depend on the type of resonance generated by such states, which can be either Fano or Breit-Wigner-like.

Thermoelectric properties of Si-based thermoelectrics
The thermal conductivity κ and the electric properties of Si1-xGex (x≤0.03) samples doped with Group 3B and 5B elements which were prepared by arc melting were measured as functions of carrier (or dopant) concentration n and of temperature in the range from 298K to 1273K.

Thermoelectric properties of in-plane $90^0$-bent graphene nanoribbons with nanopores [PDF]
We study the thermoelectric performance of $90^0$-bent graphene nanoribbons containing nanopores for optimized design of multiple functional circuits including thermoelectric generators. We show that the thermal conductance of the $90^0$-bent ribbons is lower from few times to an order of magnitude compared to that of pristine armchair and zigzag ...

The thermoelectric working fluid: thermodynamics and transport [PDF]
Thermoelectric devices are heat engines, which operate as generators or refrigerators using the conduction electrons as a working fluid. The thermoelectric heat-to-work conversion efficiency has always been typically quite low, but much effort continues ...

Thermoelectric degrees of freedom determining thermoelectric efficiency [PDF]
Thermal energy can be directly converted to electrical energy as a result of thermoelectric effects. Because this conversion realises clean energy technology, such as waste heat recovery and energy harvesting, substantial efforts have been made to search for thermoelectric materials.

We have investigated the thermoelectric properties of the 3C, 2H, 4H, and 6H polytypes of the wide-band-gap(n-type) semiconductors SiC, GaN, and ZnO based on first-principles calculations and Boltzmann transport theory.
