Studies on thermoelectric figure of merit of Na-doped p-type polycrystalline SnSe

TL;DR: In this article, a room temperature carrier concentration of ∼2.7 × 1019 cm−3 was obtained in 2 atm% Na-doped SnSe samples with the highest power factor obtained in 1.5 atm % Na doping.

Manipulation of ionized impurity scattering for achieving high thermoelectric performance in n-type Mg

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that by manipulating the carrier scattering mechanism in n-type Mg3Sb2-based materials, a substantial improvement in carrier mobility, and hence the power factor, can be achieved.
