Abstract:The effects of compressive strain, doping and temperature on the thermoelectric properties of CH3NH3PbI3 have been investigated by employing first principles based calculations and semi-classical Boltzmann theory. CH3NH3PbI3 displays a topological phase transition under 9.9% external compressive strain. Thermoelectric studies reveal that application of strain enhances the Seebeck coefficient for electron and hole-doped regions. This increment is attributed to the strain induced band inversion and modifications… Show more
