Manipulation of Band Degeneracy and Lattice Strain for Extraordinary PbTe Thermoelectrics

Manipulation of Band Degeneracy and Lattice Strain for Extraordinary PbTe Thermoelectrics

Maximizing band degeneracy and minimizing phonon relaxation time are proven to be successful for advancing thermoelectrics. Alloying with monotellurides has been known to be an effective approach for converging the valence bands of PbTe for electronic improvements, while the lattice thermal conducti...
