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 …

As a promising thermoelectric material, higher manganese silicides are composed of earth‐
abundant and eco‐friendly elements, and have attracted extensive attention for future …

We present an overview and preliminary analysis of computed thermoelectric properties for
more than 48 000 inorganic compounds from the Materials Project (MP). We compare our …

Thermoelectrics are energy harvesters that can directly convert waste heat into electrical
energy and vice versa. Currently, thermoelectric (TE) devices display lower efficiency as the …

We review many-body effects, their microscopic origin, as well as their impact on
thermoelectricity in correlated narrow-gap semiconductors. Members of this class—such as …

Different families of thermoelectric materials have been investigated since the discovery of
thermoelectric effects in the mid-19th century, materials mostly belonging to the family of …

Tetrahedrites are promising p-type thermoelectric materials for energy recovery. We present
here the first investigation of the structure and thermoelectric properties of copper-rich …

Recent studies have shown that thermoelectric materials exhibit a high figure-of-merit if it
consists of hierarchically organized microstructures that significantly lower the lattice thermal …

Bi 2 O 2 Te was synthesised from a stoichiometric mixture of Bi, Bi 2 O 3 and Te by a solid
state reaction. Analysis of powder X-ray diffraction data indicates that this material …

Bournonite (CuPbSbS3) is an earth-abundant mineral with potential thermoelectric
applications. This material has a complex crystal structure (space group Pmn21# 31) and …
