TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the thermoelectric performance of polycrystalline p-type SnSe, a material in which unprecedented values of the thermoclectric figure of merit ZT have been recently discovered in single crystals.

TL;DR: In this article, the temperature dependences of the electrical resistivity, Seebeck coefficient, and thermal conductivity have been measured on these compounds in the 300-800 K temperature range and they identified Ca as being a true n-type filler atom and offer, for this family of skutterudite, several valuable insights into the potential of Ca to provide good thermoelectric performance.

TL;DR: In this article, the electrical resistivity, thermoelectric power and thermal conductivity have been measured between 4.2 and 300 K on three Bi1−xSbx alloys of different composition (x = 0.144, 0.165 and 0.181).

TL;DR: A feasibility study of thin stoichiometric Bi2Te3 films by pulsed laser deposition was performed, the difficulty arising from the differences of vapour pressure between Te and Bi as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: The mechanism in which glass-like thermal conductivity emerges in tetrahedrites, a family of natural minerals extensively studied in geology and, more recently, in thermoelectricity, is unveiled.
