An algorithm of calculating transport parameters of thermoelectric materials using single Kane band model with Riemann integral methods

Abstract We develop an algorithm called SKBcal to conveniently calculate within minutes the thermoelectric transport parameters such as reduced Fermi level (η), electronic thermal conductivity (κ e ), lattice thermal conductivity (κ l ), Hall factor (A), effective mass (m * ), quality factor (β) and...
