“…[6] Recently,i th as been realized that, rather than extrinsic (nano/meso-structuring) phonon transport manipulation strategies,the deployment of intrinsic material properties to block heat transport is effective to achieve PGEC like properties. [3] This leads to ar ecent surge in the discovery of intrinsically low thermal conducting materials.V arious intrinsic effects like stereochemically active lone pairs, [7] inherent bonding heterogeneity, [8] layered 2D structures like SnSe, [9] SnS, [10] BiSe, [11] and BiTe, [12] complex crystal structures, [13] ferroelectric instability, [14,15] or part crystalline-part liquid states [16] have been employed to achieve an intrinsically low k lat .L ow thermal conductivity has been observed in skutterudites [17] and clathrates [18] wherein ah ost element rattles independently in an oversized cage.…”
