Journal ArticleDOI
High thermoelectric cooling performance of n-type Mg 3 Bi 2 -based materials.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported n-type magnesium bismuthide (Mg3Bi2)-based materials with a peak figure of merit (ZT) of 0.9 at 350 kelvin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Advances in thermoelectrics
TL;DR: In this article, a thermoelectric generator is used to directly convert heat into electricity, which holds great promise for tackling the ever-increasing energy sustainability issue in the future.
Journal ArticleDOI

Jing Shuai,Jun Mao,Shaowei Song,Qing Zhu,Jifeng Sun,Yumei Wang,Ran He,Jiawei Zhou,Gang Chen,David J. Singh,Zhifeng Ren +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate that by tuning the carrier scattering mechanism in n-type Mg3Sb2-based materials, it is possible to noticeably improve the Hall mobility, from ∼19 to ∼77 cm2 V−1 s−1, and hence substantially increase the power factor by a factor of 3.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermoelectric cooling materials.
Jun Mao,Gang Chen,Zhifeng Ren +2 more
TL;DR: The current status of, and future outlook for, thermoelectric cooling materials are reviewed, coefficients of performance for these systems and the state-of-the-art for materials are discussed, and strategies for the discovery of improved thermoeLECTric materials are suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Discovery of TaFeSb-based half-Heuslers with high thermoelectric performance
Hangtian Zhu,Jun Mao,Yuwei Li,Jifeng Sun,Yumei Wang,Qing Zhu,Guannan Li,Qichen Song,Jiawei Zhou,Yuhao Fu,Ran He,Tian Tong,Zihang Liu,Wuyang Ren,Wuyang Ren,Li You,Li You,Zhiming Wang,Jun Luo,Andrei Sotnikov,Jiming Bao,Kornelius Nielsch,Gang Chen,David J. Singh,Zhifeng Ren +24 more
TL;DR: The authors apply the inverse design approach to identify and experimentally realize TaFeSb-based half Heuslers with high thermoelectric performance and demonstrate that the TaFe Sb- based half-Heuslers are highly promising for thermoelectedric power generation.
