Improved thermoelectric performance of (Fe,Co)Sb3-type skutterudites from first-principles

February 3, 2016
Author(s)
Winnie K. Wong-Ng, Izaak Williamson, Logan J. Her, Xianli Su, Yonggao Yan, Lan Li
Skutterudite materials have been considered as promising thermoelectric candidates due to intrinsically good electrical conductivity and tailorable thermal conductivity. Options for improving thermal-to-electrical conversion efficiency include identifying
