Intrinsic anharmonic localization in thermoelectric PbSe

Intrinsic anharmonic localization in thermoelectric PbSe

To optimize the performance of lead chalcogenides for thermoelectric applications, strategies to further reduce the crystal’s thermal conductivity is required. Here, the authors discover anharmonic localized vibrations in PbSe crystals for optimizing the crystal’s vibrational transport properties....
