Role of lattice thermal conductivity in thermoelectric properties of chalcopyrite-type antimonides XSiSb2 (X = Mg, Be): A DFT insight

Investigation of optoelectronic & thermoelectric features of ZnCrX2 (X = S Se Te) chalcopyrite semiconductor using mBJ potential

“…The material will not be beneficial enough if its power factor is low while the best recommendation for material application is those that exhibit a higher power factor. It is related to the Seebeck coefficient and electrical conductivity so by attaining moderate S and 𝜎 values an optimal power factor can be achieved [67]. Depending on the temperature, the power factor is increasing as plotted in Fig.…”
