Half-Heusler compounds usually exhibit relatively higher lattice thermal conductivity that is undesirable for thermoelectric applications. Here we demonstrate by first-principles calculations and Boltzmann transport theory that the BiBaK…
Half-Heusler alloys have been one of the benchmark high temperature thermoelectric materials owing to their thermal stability and promising figure of merit ZT. Simonson et al. early showed that small amounts of vanadium doped in…
Sb-doped Bi2Te3 is known since the 1950s as the best thermoelectric material for near-room temperature operation. Improvements in material performance are expected from nanostructuring procedures. We present a straightforward and fast…
In 2016, bulk tellurium was experimentally observed as a remarkable thermoelectric material. Recently, two-dimensional (2D) tellurium, called tellurene, has been synthesized and has exhibited unexpected electronic properties compared with…
The hybrid halide perovskites, the very performant compounds in photovoltaic applications, possess large Seebeck coefficient and low thermal conductivity making them potentially interesting high figure of merit ($ZT$) materials. For this…
In recent years, nanoporous thin films have been widely studied for thermoelectric applications. High thermoelectric performance is reported for nanoporous Si films, which is attributed to the dramatically reduced lattice thermal…
To increase the performance of thermoelectric materials, the electronic parameters in the figure of merit must be improved. In this paper, we use full, numerical band structures and solve the Boltzmann equation in the relaxation time…
High performance thermoelectric materials for wide-range temperature applications still remains a challenge. In this study, we have produced high-quality homogeneous $In_{0.32}Ga_{0.68}N$ on ZnO substrates, with no phase separation at high…
Tungsten diselenide (WSe2) emerges as a promising thermoelectric (TE) candidate due to its high thermopower (S), cost-effectiveness, and environmentally friendly characteristics. However, pristine WSe2 exhibits limited electrical…

Systemic optimization of thermoelectric materials is arduous due to their conflicting electrical and thermal properties. A strategy based on Design of Experiments and machine learning is developed to optimize the thermoelectric efficiency…
Thermal energy can be directly converted to electrical energy as a result of thermoelectric effects. Because this conversion realises clean energy technology, such as waste heat recovery and energy harvesting, substantial efforts have been…
Thermoelectric materials can recover electrical energy from waste heat and vice versa, which are of great significance in green energy harvesting and solid state refrigerator. The thermoelectric figure of merit (zT) quantifies the energy…
