Enhanced thermoelectric figure of merit at near room temperature in n-type binary silver telluride nanoparticles

In the present study, we have synthesized Ag2Te nanoparticles using the hydrothermal method and showed significant improvement in the thermoelectric properties compared to the bulk Ag2Te sample. Ag2Te nanoparticles showed the highest figure of merit (zT) of 1.37 at 373 K, which is the highest zT rep...
