We report thermoelectric (TE) properties of Sr and Mn co-substituted LaCoO3 system from room temperature to 700 K. Sr-substitutions at La and Mn at Co site in LaCoO3 improves the electrical conductivity ({\sigma}). Thermal conductivity…

We report 45% enhancement in the thermoelectric figure of merit, ZT of Sr3SnO via Ca substitution. First-principles calculations have been performed to study the electronic and thermoelectric transport properties of Ca substituted Sr3SnO…

We report the thermoelectric (TE) properties of (1-x)LaCoO3.xLa0.7Sr0.3MnO3 (0 < x < 0.10) composite in a temperature range 320-800 K. Addition of La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 to LaCoO3 in small amount (5 weight %) improves the overall Seebeck…

We have examined an isovalent Rh substitution effect on the transport properties of the thermoelectric oxide Ca$_3$Co$_{4}$O$_9$ using single-crystalline form. With increasing Rh content $x$, both the electrical resistivity and the Seebeck…

A high Seebeck coefficient (S), large electrical conductivity ({\sigma}), and reduced thermal conductivity ({\kappa}) are required to achieve a high figure-of-merit (zT) in an ideal thermoelectric (TE) system, which is challenging in a…

We investigate the high temperature thermoelectric properties of Heusler alloys Fe2-xMnxCrAl (0<x<1). Substitution of 12.5% Mn at Fe-site (x = 0.25) causes a significant increase in high temperature resistivity (\r{ho}) and an enhancement…

Bi2Te3 based thermoelectric devices typically use a nickel layer as a diffusion barrier to block the diffusion of solder or copper atoms from the electrode into the thermoelectric material. Previous studies have shown degradation in the…

While both La$_{0.7}$Sr$_{0.3}$MnO$_3$ and La$_{0.7}$Sr$_{0.3}$CoO$_3$ are ferromagnets with metallic conductivity below $T_\mathrm{c}$ (360K and 220K, respectively), partial substitutions of Co by Mn in…

We have investigated the effect of Sb-deficiency on the thermoelectric figure of merit (zT) of Zn4Sb3 prepared by solid state reaction route. At high temperatures, the Seebeck coefficient (S) and electrical conductivity ({\sigma}) increase…

High-entropy concept introduced with a promising paradigm to obtain exotic physical properties has motivated us to explore the thermoelectric properties of Sr-substituted high-entropy rare-earth cobaltates i.e.,…

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…

Mn site is substituted with closed shell ions (Al, Ga. Ti, Zr and a certain combination of Zr and Al) and also with Fe and Ru ions carrying the magnetic moment (S=5/2 and 2 respectively) at a fixed concentration of 5 at. %. Substitution did…

Kondo insulator FeSb$_2$ with large Seebeck coefficient would have potential in thermoelectric applications in cryogenic temperature range if it had not been for large thermal conductivity $\kappa$. Here we studied the influence of…

Magnetic and transport properties of Ti substituted La$_{0.67}$Sr$_{0.33}$MnO$_3$ are drastically affected with a change in preparation conditions. Low temperature infra-red absorption measurements reveal that this is perhaps due to…

We study role of site substitutions at In and Te site in In2Te5 on the thermoelectric behavior. Single crystals with compositions In2(Te1-xSex)5 (x = 0, 0.05, 0.10) and Fe0.05In1.95(Te0.90Se0.10)5 were prepared using modified…

We developed a theory of electric and thermoelectric conductivity of lightly doped SrTiO$_3$ in the non-degenerate region $k_B T \geq E_F$, assuming that the major source of electron scattering is their interaction with soft transverse…

Thermoelectric energy conversion - the exploitation of the Seebeck effect to convert waste heat into electricity - has attracted an increasing amount of research attention for energy harvesting technology. Niobium-doped strontium titanate…

Recently, we reported [M. Wagner et al., J. Mater. Res. 26, 1886 (2011)] transport measurements on the semiconducting intermetallic system RuIn3 and its substitution derivatives RuIn_{3-x}A_{x} (A = Sn, Zn). Higher values of the…
