Ab initio optimization of phonon drag effect for lower-temperature thermoelectric energy conversion
It has been well known that the phonon drag effect—an extra electrical current induced by phonon heat flow via electron–phonon interaction—can lead to unusually high Seebeck coefficient at low temperatures. However, its use for improving thermoelectric performance has been controversial. Here, using...
