The local atomic structure of SnSe was characterized across its orthorhmbic-to-orthorhombic structural phase transition using x-ray pair distribution function analysis. Substantial Sn off-centering distortions persist in the high symmetry…

We present a detailed study of the charge transport, optical reflectivity, and thermal transport properties of n-type PbSe crystals. A strong scattering, mobility-limiting mechanism was revealed to be at play at temperatures above 500 K.…

Herein, we report the use of nanostructured crystalline Si as a thermoelectric material and its integration into thermoelectric harvesters. The proof-of-concept relies on the partial suppression of lattice thermal transport by introducing…

Measurements of intrinsic conductivity and X-ray induced conductivity were performed on specially undopped ZnSe samples. The measurements demonstrated that sensors made of ZnSe have minor intrinsic conductivity when heating up to the…

The structural, superconducting, and electronic phase diagram of [Tl4]Tl1-xSnxTe3 is reported. Magnetization and specific heat measurements show bulk superconductivity exists for 0 < x < 0.4. Resistivity measurements indicate a crossover…

The solid state reaction method is employed to synthesize Sn1-xInxTe samples. Power Factors of synthesized samples are estimated from resistivity and thermopower data. Modifications in structural parameters, resistivity and thermopower…

The present theoretical study focuses on the structural, electronic and thermoelectric properties of PbTe, PbSe and their ternary alloys PbSe$_{x}$Te$_{1-x}$, using the density functional theory (DFT) by the full potential linearised…

We report the successful synthesis of FeSe$_{1-x}$S$_{x}$ single crystals with $x$ ranging from 0 to 1 via a hydrothermal method. A complete phase diagram of FeSe$_{1-x}$S$_{x}$ has been obtained based on resistivity and magnetization…

We present a comprehensive computational study of the electronic, thermal, and thermoelectric (TE) properties of gallium nitride nanowires (NWs) over a wide range of thicknesses (3--9 nm), doping densities ($10^{18}$--$10^{20}$ cm$^{-3}$),…

The electronic structure and thermoelectric properties of SnSe are studied by first-principles methods. The inclusion of van der Waals dispersive corrections improves the agreement of structural parameters with experiments. The bands…

Efficient ab initio computational methods for the calculation of thermoelectric transport properties of materials are of great avail for energy harvesting technologies. The BoltzTraP code has been largely used to efficiently calculate…

Tin-chalcogenides SnX (X = Te, Se and S) have been arousing research interest due to their thermoelectric physical properties. The two-dimensional (2D) counterparts, which are expected to enhance the property, nevertheless, have not been…

The layered semiconductor SnSe is one of the highest-performing thermoelectric materials known. We demonstrate, through a first-principles lattice-dynamics study, that the high-temperature Cmcm phase is a dynamic average over lower-symmetry…

Slack's phonon-glass and electron-crystal concept has been the guiding paradigm for designing new thermoelectric materials. Zintl phases, in principle, have been shown as great contenders of the concept and thereby good thermoelectric…

We report superconductivity in Sn$_{x}$NbSe$_{2-\delta}$, a topological nodal-line semimetal candidate with a noncentrosymmetric crystal structure. The superconducting transition temperature $T_{c}$ of this compound is extremely sensitive…

The doping and temperature dependent thermopower of SnTe is calculated from the first principles band structure using Boltzmann transport theory. We find that the $p$-type thermopower is inferior to PbTe consistent with experimental…

SnxSey crystalline compounds consisting of Sn and Se atoms of varying composition are systematically investigated at pressures from 0 to 100 GPa using the first-principles evolutionary crystal structure search method based on density…

We present a study of the thermal conductivity k and the thermopower S of single crystals of La_{1-x}Sr_xCoO_3 with 0<= x <= 0.3. For all Sr concentrations La_{1-x}Sr_xCoO_3 has rather low k values, whereas S strongly changes as a function…

Thermoelectric properties of monolayer indium selenide (InSe) are investigated by using Boltzman transport theory and first-principles calculations as a function of Fermi energy and crystal orientation. We find that the maximum power factor…
