Special Issue: Advances in Zintl Phases. [PDF]
Zintl phases have garnered a great deal of attention for many applications. The term “Zintl phase” recognizes the contributions of the German chemist Eduard Zintl to the field of solid-state chemistry. While Zintl phases were initially defined as a subgroup of intermetallic phases where cations and anions or polyanions in complex intermetallic ...

Data from the electronic band structures of several Zintl phases with group 15 elements and the transition metals [PDF]
Electronic band structures of the following compounds – Cs4Cd(As7)2, K2PdP2, K5CuAs2, Na2CuP and K3Cu3P2 – all computed by means of the TB-LMTO-ASA code. The calculations show that for all compounds, the bonding states are occupied, while the antibonding

Ultralow Lattice Thermal Conductivity of Zintl‐Phase CaAgSb Induced by Interface and Superlattice Scattering [PDF]
Zintl phases attract extensive attention due to the characteristic of “electron‐crystal, phonon glass”. In this work, an ultralow lattice thermal conductivity ≈0.59 W m−1 K−1 at 300 K and ≈0.3 W m−1 K−1 at 623 K is obtained in CaAgSb Zintl phase, which ...
