Electronic structure and thermoelectric properties of half-Heusler alloys NiTZ

We investigated the electronic and thermoelectric properties of half-Heusler alloys NiTZ (T = Sc and Ti; Z = P, As, Sn, and Sb) having an 18 valence electron count. Calculations were performed by means of density functional theory and the Boltzmann transport equation wi...
