This study presents a measurement method for determining the figure of merit for transverse thermoelectric conversion ($ z_\mathrm{T}T $) in thin film forms. Leveraging the proposed methodology, we comprehensively investigate the transverse…
Enhancing the dimensionless figure of merit zT is central to developing better thermoelectric materials and advancing thermoelectric generation technology. However, the intrinsic interdependence between electrical conductivity, the Seebeck…
While thermoelectric material performances can be estimated using the ZT, predicting the performance of thermoelectric generator modules (TGMs) is complex due to the non-linearity and non-locality of the thermoelectric differential…
Nanostructured materials have emerged as an alternative to enhance the figure of merit (ZT) of thermoelectric (TE) devices. Graphene exhibits a high electrical conductivity (in-plane) that is necessary for a high ZT; however, this effect is…
We study the thermoelectric properties of three-dimensional topological Anderson insulators with line dislocations. We show that at high densities of dislocations the thermoelectric figure of merit ZT can be dominated by one-dimensional…
In order to improve the thermoelectric performance of TiCoSb we have substituted 50% of Ti equally with Zr and Hf at Ti site and Sb with Sn and Se equally at Sb site. The electronic structure of Ti0.5Zr0.25Hf0.25CoSn0.5Se0.5 is investigated…
Although the Boltzmann transport equation (BTE) has been exploited to investigate non-diffusive phonon transport for decades, due to the challenges of solving this integro-differential equation, most standard techniques for thermal…

We study the performance of a three-terminal thermoelectric device such as heat engine and refrigerator with broken time-reversal symmetry by applying the unified trade-off figure of merit ($\dot{\Omega}$ criterion) which accounts for both…
In this Letter, we show thermoelectric conversion efficiency is \emph{exactly} determined by \emph{three} independent material parameters $Z_{\rm gen}$, $\tau$, and $\beta$. Each parameter is a figure of merit hence improving $\tau$ or…
We solved the Anderson Lattice Hamiltonian to get the energy bands of a strongly correlated semiconductor by using slave boson mean field theory. The transport properties were calculated in the relaxation-time approximation,and the…
Boltzmann transport calculations based on band structures computed from first principles play an important role in modern thermoelectric materials research. Among available codes, the \textsc{BoltzTraP} code is the most widely adopted, but…
We consider the thermoelectric response of chaotic or disordered quantum dots in the limit of phase-coherent transport, statistically described by random matrix theory. We calculate the full distribution of the thermoelectric coefficients…
Thermoelectric (TE) conversion in conducting materials is of eminent importance for providing renewable energy and solid-state cooling. Although traditionally, the Seebeck effect plays a key role for the TE figure of merit zST, it…

Dimensionless thermoelectric figure of merit $ZT$ is investigated for two-dimensional organic conductors $\tau-(EDO-S,S-DMEDT-TTF)_2(AuI_2)_{1+y}$, $\tau$-(EDT-S,S-DMEDT-TTF)_2(AuI_2)_{1+y}$ and $\tau$-(P-S,S-DMEDT-TTF)_2(AuI_2)_{1+y}$ ($y…
