Thermoelectric materials create an electric potential when subject to a temperature gradient and vice versa hence they can be used to harvest waste heat into electricity and in thermal management applications. However, finding highly…
Improving the thermoelectric efficiency is one of the greatest challenges in materials science. The recent discovery of excellent thermoelectric performance in simple orthorhombic SnSe crystal offers new promise in this prospect [Zhao et…
In this work, density functional theory (DFT) is used to find out the ground state structures of A2AuScX6 (A= Cs, Rb; X= Cl, Br, I) double Perovskite (DP) halides for the first time. The DP A2AuScX6 halides were studied for their structural…
First-principles density functional theory (DFT) is employed to evaluate the structural, electronic, optical, thermoelectric, and electrocatalytic properties of monolayer CrSi2N4. Its symmetric N-Si-N-Cr-N-Si-N septuple-layer structure…
