Effect of In and Cd co-doping on the thermoelectric properties of Sn1−xPbxTe
Pristine tin telluride (SnTe) with a similar electronic structure to PbTe shows inferior thermoelectric performance owing to high p -type hole concentration (10 ^21 cm ^−3 ), high lattice thermal conductivity, κ _latt (∼2.8 W mK ^−1 at room temperature) and large energy gap between light and heavy h...
