Substitution of Sb in FeSb$_2$ by less than 0.5% of Te induces a transition from a correlated semiconductor to an unconventional metal with large effective charge carrier mass $m^*$. Spanning the entire range of the semiconductor-metal…
The effects of Ir doping on the thermoelectric properties of Pt1-xIrxSb2 (x = 0, 0.01, 0.03, and 0.1) with pyrite structure were studied. Measurements of electrical resistivity rho, Seebeck coefficient S, and thermal conductivity kappa were…
We report thermoelectric studies of FeS$_{1-x}$Se$_x$ ($x$ = 0, 0.06) superconducting single crystals that feature high irreversibility fields and critical current density $J_c$ comparable to materials with much higher superconducting…
Low temperature (<400 K) thermoelectric properties of semiconducting RuIn3 and metallic IrIn3 are reported. RuIn3 is a narrow band gap semiconductor with a large n-type Seebeck coefficient at room temperature (S(290K)~400 {\mu}V/K), but the…
We investigate the effect of electronic correlations onto the thermoelectricity of semi-conductors and insulators. Appealing to model considerations, we study various many-body renormalizations that enter the thermoelectric response. We…
Iron based narrow gap semiconductors such as FeSi, FeSb2, or FeGa3 have received a lot of attention because they exhibit a large thermopower, as well as striking similarities to heavy fermion Kondo insulators. Many proposals have been…
We report the evolution of thermal transport properties of iron-based superconductor K$_x$Fe$_{2-y}$Se$_2$ with sulfur substitution at Se sites. Sulfur doping suppresses the superconducting $T_c$ as well as the Seebeck coefficient. The…
We have investigated the electrical resistivity, Seebeck coefficient and thermal conductivity of PdTe2 and 4% Cu intercalated PdTe2 compounds. Electrical resistivity for the compounds shows Bloch-Gruneisen type linear temperature (T)…
The electrical, thermal conductivity and Seebeck coefficient of the quenched, annealed and slowly cooled phases of the layer compound CuCrS2 have been reported between 15K to 300K. We also confirm the antiferromagnetic transition at 40K in…
The thermoelectric power factor of the narrow-gap semiconductor FeSb2 is greatly enhanced in comparison to the isostructural homologues FeAs2 and RuSb2. Comparative studies of magnetic and thermodynamic properties provide evidence that the…
Thermoelectric materials (TMs) can uniquely convert waste heat into electricity, which provides a potential solution for the global energy crisis that is increasingly severe. Bulk Cu2Se, with ionic conductivity of Cu ions, exhibits a…
We show that synthesis-induced Metal -Insulator transition (MIT) for electronic transport along the orthorombic c axis of FeSb$_{2}$ single crystals has greatly enhanced electrical conductivity while keeping the thermopower at a relatively…
We have prepared polycrystalline samples of (Sr$_{1-x}$La$_x$)$_2$ErRuO$_6$ and (Sr$_{1-x}$La$_x$)$_2$YRuO$_6$, and have measured the resistivity, Seebeck coefficient, thermal conductivity, susceptibility and x-ray absorption in order to…
The layered perovskite Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ is a most intensively studied superconductor, but its pairing mechanism, which is often coupled intimately with magnetic fluctuations in correlated materials, is still an open question. Here we present a…
We report a study of structural, magnetic, heat capacity and thermoelectric properties of a Rubased Heusler alloy, Ru2TiGe. The magnetic measurements reveal that at higher temperatures, diamagnetic and Pauli paramagnetic contributions…
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have garnered attention for their potential in thermoelectric applications due to their unique electronic properties and tunable bandgaps. In this study, we systematically explore the electronic and…
$\beta$-Ag$_2$Se is a promising material for room temperature thermoelectric applications and magneto-resistive sensors. However, no attention was paid earlier to the hysteresis in the temperature dependence of resistivity ($\rho$($T$)).…
Electronic structure calculations using the augmented spherical wave method have been performed for CuRhO2. For this semiconductor crystallizing in the delafossite structure, it is found that the valence band maximum is mainly due to the 4d…
We report thermoelectric properties of Ir$_{1-x}$Rh$_x$Te$_2$ ($0 \leqslant x \leqslant 0.3$) alloy series where superconductivity at low temperatures emerges as the high-temperature structural transition ($T_s$) is suppressed. The…
We report a thermal transport study of IrSbSe, which crystallizes in a noncentrosymmetric cubic structure with the $P2_13$ space group and shows a narrow-gap semiconducting behavior. The large discrepancy between the activation energy for…
