Physical Intuition to Improve Electronic Properties of Thermoelectrics
Thermoelectrics convert heat to electricity and vice versa. They are of technological importance in cooling and energy harvesting. Their performances are defined by figure of merit, zT. Decades of studies have largely focused on the development of novel and advanced materials reaching higher perform...
