Enhanced thermoelectric performance in TiNiSn-based half-Heuslers

Materials Science 2013-01-04 v1

Abstract

Thermoelectric figures of merit, ZT > 0.5, have been obtained in arc-melted TiNiSn-based ingots. This promising conversion efficiency is due to a low lattice thermal conductivity, which is attributed to excess nickel in the half-Heusler structure.
