“…30−32 When the configuration entropy is high enough, the phase transition could be shifted to even below room temperature, which results in maintaining the required crystal structure symmetry in all temperature ranges of the operation and at the same keeping improved electrical transport properties. 29,33 A series of argyrodite compounds, such as Cu 8 GeSe 6 , 34,35 Cu 7 PSe 6 , 29,36,37 Ag 9 AlSe 6 , 38 Ag 8 SnSe 6 , 39−41 Ag 9 GaSe 6 , 42−44 Ag 9 GaS 6 , 45 Ag 8 SiSe 6 , 46 Ag 8 GeSe 6 , 47 Ag 8 GeTe 6 , 48,49 and Ag 9 TlTe 5 , 50 have been demonstrated as the promising TE materials with a high ZT of 1.0 and above at high temperatures. The best reported ZT parameter for the n-type argyrodites reaches a value of ∼1.62 for Ag 8.28 Cu 0.72 GaSe 6 .…”
