Assessing the limitations of transparent conducting oxides as thermoelectrics
TL;DR: In this article, the authors use hybrid density functional theory to screen four transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) for thermoelectric efficiency and analyse the limitations of TCOs as thermistors, showing that the dominant factor limiting these materials is the lattice thermal conductivity, and more specifically very long phonon mean free paths up to the order 10 μm.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple strategy based on chemical intuition was proposed to discover enhanced n-type oxide thermoelectrics, and two methods to enhance the overall dimensionless figure of merit up to 0.22 were proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Y2Ti2O5S2 – a promising n-type oxysulphide for thermoelectric applications
TL;DR: In this article , the authors used density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate Y2Ti2O5S2, a cation-deficient Ruddlesden-Popper system, as a potential thermoelectric.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sr2Sb2O7: a novel earth abundant oxide thermoelectric
TL;DR: In this article , the thermoelectric properties of Sr2Sb2O7 with high-level theory including hybrid DFT and MRTA electronic scattering calculations were calculated and obtained a maximum ZT of 0.71.
