Grain boundaries induce significant decrease in lattice thermal conductivity of CdTe

Semiconductors are promising in photoelectric and thermoelectric devices, for which the thermal transport properties are of particular interest. However, they have not been fully understood, especially when crystalline imperfections are present. Here, using cadmium telluride (CdTe) as an example, we...
