First-principles calculations of thermal, electrical, and thermoelectric transport properties of semiconductors

The transport properties of semiconductors are key to the performance of many solid-state devices (transistors, data storage, thermoelectric cooling and power generation devices, etc). An understanding of the transport details can lead to material designs with better performances. In recent years si...
