Abstract:ZnSb is a promising thermoelectric (TE) material due
to its decent
TE conversion efficiency and low cost. However, its full potential
for TE applications has not been achieved due to difficulties associated
with optimal doping and its unique temperature-dependent charge carrier
concentration (n). In this work, we propose a codoping
strategy that enables precise control of n, leading
to dynamic optimization of the charge carrier concentration. The codoping
technique works on the principle of charge compensation… Show more
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.
