Relaxor Ferroelectricity Enables Enhanced Thermoelectric Performance in In<sub>2</sub>Se<sub>3</sub>-Alloyed GeTe. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
A non‐equimolar In3+/Se2− alloying strategy creates Ge vacancies in GeTe, inducing relaxor ferroelectricity that broadens the low thermal conductivity window. Simultaneously, cubic phase stabilization broadens optimal electrical transport, achieving an average zT > 1.0 over 330–625 K.
