Enhancement of thermoelectric performance in n-type PbTe[subscript 1−y]Se[subscript y] by doping Cr and tuning Te:Se ratio
Lead telluride and its alloys have been extensively studied for medium temperature thermoelectric applications due to decent figure-of-merit (ZT) at temperature close to 900 K. However, little emphasis has been given to improve the ZT near room temperature. In this investigation, we report a systema...
