Modeling of thermal conductivity in high performing thermoelectric materials
(Institute of Physics Publishing, 2017)The enhanced TE-performance in Mg2Si-Mg2Sn based pseudo-binaries is presented, which is attributed to low thermal conductivity. Sn-Si alloying, reduces the lattice thermal conductivity due to mass fluctuation. Furthermore, ...
