Alloying to increase the band gap for improving thermoelectric properties of Ag 2 Te

Y Pei, NA Heinz, GJ Snyder - Journal of Materials Chemistry, 2011 - pubs.rsc.org
Ag2Te simultaneously shows high mobility and low thermal conductivity, however the
relatively low band gap of∼ 0.2 eV prevents it from achieving high thermoelectric figure of …

Role of intrinsic defects in splitting the energy spectra of charge carriers in Ag2Te

MB Jafarov, FF Aliev, RA Hasanova, AA Saddinova - Semiconductors, 2012 - Springer
The energy gap and its temperature coefficient are calculated depending on the
concentration of defects in silver telluride with a Te and Ag excess. On the basis of the …
