An aqueous solution method is developed for the facile synthesis of Cl‐containing SnSe nanoparticles in 10 g quantities per batch. The particle size and Cl concentration of the nanoparticles can be efficiently tuned as a function of reaction duration. Hot pressing produces n‐type Cl‐doped SnSe nanostructured compacts with thermoelectric power factors optimized via control of Cl dopant concentration. This approach, combining an energy‐efficient solution synthesis with hot pressing, provides a simple, rapid, and low‐cost route to high performance n‐type SnSe thermoelectric materials.
