Abstract:Thermoelectric (TE) cooling is an environment-friendly alternative to vapor compression cooling. Narrow-gap semiconductors and semimetals have garnered interest for Peltier cooling, especially following the discovery of Mg3Bi2-based materials. New TE materials with high coefficients of performance are needed to further advance this technology. Computations have enabled the discovery and design of new TE materials. Large-scale computational searches often rely on material descriptors, which are based on the sin… Show more
