Bulk single crystal Molybdenum diselenide has been studied for its electronic and thermal transport properties. We perform resistivity measurements with current in-plane (CIP) and current perpendicular to plane (CPP) as a function of…
Half-Heusler phases are among the most extensively studied thermoelectic materials. Bipolar thermal conductivity analysis performed for their sub-group based on rare-earth (R) metals, RNiSb, indicated on high mobility ratio in favor of…
The atomic structure, electronic structure and physical properties of $(TiZrNbCu)_{(1-x)}Ni_x$ (x $\leq$ 0.5) metallic glasses (MG) were studied in both the high-entropy (0<x<0.35) and the higher Ni concentration range (x $\geq$ 0.35).…
On the basis of detailed first-principles calculations and semi-classical Boltzmann transport, the anisotropic thermoelectric transport properties of Bi$_2$Te$_3$ and Sb$_2$Te$_3$ under strain were investigated. It was found that due to…
Polymer blends consisting of two or more polymers are important for a wide variety of industries and processes, but, the precise mechanism of their thermomechanical behaviour is incompletely understood. In order to understand clearly, it is…
We report synthesis, characterization, and physical properties of layered bismuth-sulfide compounds La2O2Bi3-xPb1+xS6. We synthesized a new La2O2Bi3PbS6 compound, whose crystal structure is similar to those of the La2O2Bi3AgS6…
Critical thermoelectric parameters including Seebeck coefficient, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and figure of merit ZT of one-dimensional coaxial Bi2Te3/Sb2Te3 nanocomposite were modeled by following the single carrier…
We report on magnetic and electrical transport properties of Sb2-xCrxTe3 single crystals with 0 <= x <= 0.095 over temperatures from 2 K to 300 K. A ferromagnetic state develops in these crystals at low temperatures with Curie temperatures…
We carried out a comprehensive study of the structural, electrical transport, thermal and thermodynamic properties in ferrimagnetic Mn$_3$Si$_2$Te$_6$ single crystals. Mn and Te $K$-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy and synchrotron powder…
The Hall and Seebeck coefficients, electrical resistivity and thermal conductivity of polycrystalline NiSi3P4 were characterized from 2 to 775K. Undoped NiSi3P4 behaves like a narrow gap semiconductor, with activated electrical resistivity…
In 3D topological insulators achieving a genuine bulk-insulating state is an important research topic. Recently, the material system (Bi,Sb)$_{2}$(Te,Se)$_{3}$ (BSTS) has been proposed as a topological insulator with high resistivity and a…
We investigate the crystal structure, transport properties and specific heat in five selected FeSe single crystals containing different amounts of disorder. Transport measurements show that disorder significantly suppresses superconducting…
Single crystals of XPt$_{5}$P (X = Al, Ga, and In) were grown from a Pt-P solution at high temperatures, and ambient-pressure measurements of temperature-dependent magnetization, resistivity, and X-ray diffraction were made. Also, the…
In the substitutionally disordered narrow-gap semiconductor Pb_{1-x}Ge_xTe, a finite-temperature cubic-rhombohedral transition appears above a critical concentration $x \approx 0.005$. As a first step towards a first-principles…
Transport and magnetic studies of PbTaSe$_2$ under pressure suggest existence of two superconducting phases with the low temperature phase boundary at $\sim 0.25$ GPa that is defined by a very sharp, first order, phase transition. The first…
Topological insulators are novel quantum materials with metallic surface transport, but insulating bulk behavior. Often, topological insulators are dominated by bulk contributions due to defect induced bulk carriers, making it difficult to…
We have performed high-pressure, electrical resistivity, and specific heat measurements on CeTe3 single crystals. Two magnetic phases with nonparallel magnetic easy axes were detected in electrical resistivity and specific heat at low…
We investigated the thermal transport properties of two $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$ crystals with different degrees of stacking disorder to understand the origin of the previously reported oscillatory feature in the field dependence of thermal…
A possible origin of unusual temperature behavior of transport coefficients observed in densely packed polycrystalline CaAl_{2} compound [M. Ausloos et al., J. Appl. Phys. 96, 7338 (2004)] is discussed, including a power-like dependence of…
The presence of strong disorder can significantly impact electrical conduction in metallic systems. Here, we investigate the temperature dependence of the electrical resistivity, $\rho(T)$, in nonmagnetic single crystals of the…
