First-principles studies of atomic dynamics in tetrahedrite thermoelectrics
Cu12Sb4S13-based tetrahedrites are high-performance thermoelectrics that contain earth-abundant and environmentally friendly elements. At present, the mechanistic understanding of their low lattice thermal conductivity (<1 W m−1 K−1 at 300 K) remains limited. This work applies first-principles mo...
