TL;DR: The results indicate that the combination of Se alloying and Sb doping is successful in improving the thermoelectric properties of Te.

TL;DR: Theoretical and experimental results for the band gap renormalization in lattice matched In 53 Ga 47 As/InP quantum wells are given and compared in this paper, where the theoretical results involve self-consistent calculations of the subband energies using a generalization] of the local density approximation for two component electron-hole systems.

TL;DR: In this paper, a kinematic simulation of the x-ray diffraction intensity profiles has been used to determine the strain in the layers of the multiple quantum wells, using the piezoelectric tensor of GaSb and the strain estimated from the xray measurements.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors achieved a peak power factor of ∼106 μW⋅cm−1⋆K−2 by increasing the hot pressing temperature up to 1,373 K in the p-type half-Heusler Nb0.95Ti0.05FeSb.

TL;DR: In this article, the exact electromagnetic response of an electron gas confined by a parabolic potential is compared to those obtained from a complete mean field theory and an incomplete theory which omits the self-consistent ground state calculation.
