rationalize its performance and propose alternatives. Materials for thermoelectric …

In this work, we have studied the electronic structure of a promising thermoelectric half-
Heusler FeVSb using FP-LAPW method and SCAN meta-GGA including spin–orbit coupling …

The structural, electronic, thermal and lattice thermal transport properties of the three
hypothetical quaternary Heusler alloys FeRuTiX (X= Si, Ge, Sn) were investigated with the …

In the quest for new thermoelectric materials with high power factors, full-Heusler
compounds having flat band are found to be promising candidates. In this direction, Fe 2 …

In this work, we try to understand the experimental thermoelectric (TE) properties of a ZrNiSn
sample with DFT and semiclassical transport calculations using SCAN functional. SCAN and …

Fabrication and characterization of an instrument for the high-temperature simultaneous
measurement of the Seebeck coefficient (S) and thermal conductivity (κ) have been carried …

Background Brief behavioural support can effectively help tuberculosis (TB) patients quit
smoking and improve their outcomes. In collaboration with TB programmes in Bangladesh …

We conduct a comprehensive assessment of the electronic and optical properties, as well as
photovoltaic (PV) performance parameters, for low-cost, nontoxic Mg 2 Si and Ca 2 Si using …
