Magneto-thermal conductivity effect and enhanced thermoelectric figure of merit in Ag2Te

In this study, we report a large magneto-thermal conductivity effect, potentially usable in heat flow switches and thermoelectric devices, in Ag2Te over a wide temperature range, including room temperature. When a magnetic field of μ0H = 9 T is applied to Ag2Te at 300 K along the direction perpendic...
