Revisiting some chalcogenides for thermoelectricity
Science and Technology of Advanced Materials, 2012 Thermoelectric materials that are efficient well above ambient temperature are needed to convert waste-heat into electricity. Many thermoelectric oxides were investigated for this purpose, but their power factor (PF) values were too small (~10−4 W m−1 K ...
