Designing chemical analogs to PbTe with intrinsic high band degeneracy and low lattice thermal conductivity
Finding new thermoelectric materials that can achieve high performance is vital to realizing the potential of future energy harvesting technology. Here, through computation methods, the authors identify two high-performance full-Heusler thermoelectric compounds with high intrinsic band degeneracy.
