Comparison of the electronic and thermoelectric properties of three layered phases Bi2Te3, PbBi2Te4 and PbBi4Te7: LEGO thermoelectrics
The electronic and thermoelectric properties of Bi2Te3, PbBi2Te4 and PbBi4Te7 were examined on the basis of density functional theory (DFT) calculations and thermoelectric transport property measurements. The layered phase PbBi4Te7 is composed of the slabs forming the layered phases Bi2Te3 and PbBi2...
