We investigate thermoelectric (TE) properties of two-dimensional materials possessing two Dirac bands (a Dirac band) and a nonlinear band within the three-(two-)band model using linearized Boltzmann transport theory and relaxation time…
Thermoelectric properties of Half Heusler alloys are predicted by adopting an ensemble modelling approach, specifically the stacking model integrated using Random Forest and XGBoost scheme. Leveraging a diverse dataset encompassing thermal…
Thermoelectric efficiency is defined as the ratio of power delivered to the load of a device to the rate of heat flow from the source. Till date, it has been studied in presence of thermodynamic constraints set by the Onsager reciprocal…
Optical and transport properties of materials depend heavily upon features of electronic band structures in proximity to energy extrema in the Brillouin zone (BZ). Such features are generally described in terms of multi-dimensional…
