“…Here κ e = Lσ e T, where σ e is the measured electrical conductivity and L is the Lorenz number, determined from the experimental Seebeck coefficient by assuming a single parabolic band. 35 The experimental value of κ L obtained in this way, which In order to analyze the effect of pnicogen ring substitution on κ L , we use experimentally-and DFT-parameterized analytical models for phonon-phonon and point-defect scattering, 26,[36][37][38][39][40] as well as non-equilibrium ab initio molecular dynamics (NEAIMD) simulation. 41 Starting with κ L of CoSb 3 and CoGe 1.5 Te 1.5, which are dominated by phonon-phonon scattering, we add an analytical factor for point-defect scattering at intermediate alloy compositions.…”
