It has been demonstrated that InSb nanoinclusions, which are formed in situ, can simultaneously improve all three individual thermoelectric properties of the n-type half Heusler compound (Ti,Zr,Hf)(Co,Ni)Sb [Xie et al., Acta Mater. 58, 4795…

SnSe is a promising thermoelectric material with record-breaking figure of merit, \textit{i.e., ZT}. As a semiconductor, optimal electrical dosage is the key challenge to maximize \textit{ZT} in SnSe. However, to date a comprehensive…

The magnetic field dependence of the specific heat of Zn-doped single crystals of YBa_{2}Cu_3O_{6.95} was measured between 2 and 10 K and up to 8 Tesla. Doping levels of 0, 0.15%, 0.31%, and 1% were studied and compared. In particular we…

We investigated the electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and thermopower as a function of Nb content (x) in Ba0.7Eu0.3Ti1-xNbxO3 (x = 0.001- 0.10) in the temperature range T = 400-2 K. The substitution of Nb destabilizes the…
