Enhanced thermoelectric power and electronic correlations in RuSe2

We report the electronic structure, electric and thermal transport properties of Ru1−xIrxSe2 (x ≤ 0.2). RuSe2 is a semiconductor that crystallizes in a cubic pyrite unit cell. The Seebeck coefficient of RuSe2 exceeds −200 μV/K around 730 K. Ir substitution results in the suppression of the resistivi...
