Enhanced Thermoelectric Performance of Polycrystalline Si<sub>0.8</sub>Ge<sub>0.2</sub> Alloys through the Addition of Nanoscale Porosity

Engineering materials to include nanoscale porosity or other nanoscale structures has become a well-established strategy for enhancing the thermoelectric performance of dielectrics. However, the approach is only considered beneficial for materials where the intrinsic phonon mean-free path is much lo...
