Semiclassical model for thermoelectric transport in nanocomposites

Nanocomposites (NCs) has recently been proposed and experimentally demonstrated to be potentially high-efficiency thermoelectric materials by reducing the thermal conductivity through phonon-interface scattering and possibly by increasing the Seebeck coefficient through energy-selective carrier scat...
