High performance BiSbTe alloy and modules with a conversion efficiency of 5% are achieved through integrating Zn induced defect complexity nanostructuring.
P-BiSbTe bulk materials with high texture, superior thermoelectric properties and robust mechanical performance were fabricated by laser 3D printing.
Abstract GeTe is a very promising thermoelectric material, but the presence of massive intrinsic Ge vacancies leads to an overhigh hole concentration and poor thermal stability. Counter doping commonly employed reduce concentration, which, however, unavoidably deteriorates carrier mobility. Here, it found that in rhombohedral phase much lower than cubic phase, owing higher formation energy vacancy former. With this recognition, can be tuned its optimum value simply by annealing below...
The donor‐like effect, depicting the uncontrollable increase of electron density that can significantly alter thermoelectric performance both p‐type and n‐type polycrystalline Bi 2 Te 3 ‐based materials, has long been an intriguing phenomenon, while its origin is still elusive.

Interactions among various film growth parameters, such as the substrate temperature (Tsub), thickness (d), and composition, play a crucial role in controlling type density of intrinsic point defects. In turn, defects modulate control electronic transport properties Bi2Te3 films. We have grown n-type films with different d by molecular beam epitaxy at Tsub.

Abstract The recently developed defective 19‐electron half‐Heusler (HH) compounds, represented by Nb 1− δ CoSb, possess massive intrinsic vacancies at the cation site and thus intrinsically low lattice thermal conductivity that is desirable for thermoelectric (TE) applications. Yet TE performance of HHs with a maximum figure merit ( zT ) <1.0 still inferior to conventional 18‐electron ones. Here, peak exceeding unity obtained 1123 K both 0.7 Ta 0.13 CoSb 0.6 0.23 benchmark value HHs....
Abstract Resoles are resins obtained by base‐catalyzed phenol–formaldehyde condensation with a three‐dimensional cross‐linked framework. They considered as highly chemical‐resistant, and calcination is thus generally used in the treatment of resole‐type resins, which significantly limits diversity nanostructured materials that can be derived from resins. Herein, we report selected metal nitrate solutions to dissolve various types resoles through an oxidative dissolution process. This...
Abstract Interfacial charge effects, such as band bending, modulation doping, and energy filtering, are critical for improving electronic transport properties of superlattice films. However, effectively manipulating interfacial bending has proven challenging in previous studies. In this study, (1T′‐MoTe 2 ) x (Bi Te 3 y films with symmetry‐mismatch were successfully fabricated via the molecular beam epitaxy. This enables to manipulate thereby optimizing corresponding thermoelectric...
