With the ever-growing development of multifunctional and miniature electronics, the
exploring of high-power microwatt-milliwatt self-charging technology is highly essential …

Due to the urgency of our energy and environmental issues, a variety of cost‐effective and
pollution‐free technologies have attracted considerable attention, among which …

Most crystalline inorganic materials, except for metals and some layer materials, exhibit bad
flexibility because of strong ionic or covalent bonds, while amorphous materials usually …

Thermoelectric materials capable of direct conversion between electricity and heat provide a
broad prospect for power generation and refrigeration. As a family of potential thermoelectric …

The need of alternative “green” energy sources has recently renewed the interest in
thermoelectric (TE) materials, which can directly convert heat to electricity or, conversely …

The synthesis of novel narrow-band-gap semiconductors with ultralow thermal conductivity
opens a pathway to the design of functional materials with high thermoelectric performance …

We report on the theoretical predictions of the effective medium theory (EMT) and its
generalized version taking into account percolation theory (GEMT) on the thermoelectric …

We investigate the thermoelectric properties of CuGaTe2/xCu2Se composites in a moderate
temperature range. The results indicate that the introduction of Cu2Se remarkably lowers the …

The effects of in-situ generated coinage nanometals (Cu, Ag and Au) on crystallization
behavior, microstructure, thermal and mechanical properties of SiO 2–MgO–Al 2 O 3–B 2 O …

A novel high-conductivity Ag x [(Ga2Te3) 34 (SnTe) 66] 100–x tellurium-based glassy
system was fabricated via melt spinning with the glass formation area in the range of x= 0 …
