Using a (3 + 1)-dimensional ((3 + 1)-D) superspace group approach, a composite crystal structure model for β- and γ-phases of Zn4Sb3 is constructed. Intercalation of Zn atoms into the Zni site is found, which affects thermoelectric properties.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
