Enhanced thermoelectric performance in the zintl antimonides (Ca,RE)9Cd4Sb9 (RE = rare-earth metal). Synergy between increased structural complexity and drive towards optimized chemical bonding
The interplay of structural complexity, high carrier mobility, and high density of states effective mass can play a pivotal role in achieving enhanced thermoelectric (TE) performance in candidate materials. In this regard, the Zintl phases represent a class of compounds that are susceptible to harbo...
