Bottom-up processing of SnTe-AgSbTe2 composites with enhanced thermoelectric performance.
SnTe has emerged as a promising lead-free thermoelectric material, yet its practical performance is limited by excessive hole concentration arising from Sn vacancies, low Seebeck coefficient, and excessive thermal conductivity. Herein, we enhance the thermoelectric properties of SnTe by alloying with colloidally synthe...
